@mark @msbellows 😆 Yes, it is like a shell game, "we can totally do this thing! Btw, can you do this other thing that clearly only needs doing to help us do that first thing that obviously we cannot yet do?"

@davidaugust Without going into too much detail because I'm guessing at the details of their system: it's feeding machine learning systems so it's not a binary thing where they can or can't do it.

They can do it really well right now. The CAPTCHA answers are labeling training data on potential corner cases to further improve accuracy, which goes to both how reliably they can do it all the time (meaning "on every camera frame") and how fast they can do it.

You're not wrong, though, that it may impact public perception of the technology, since most of the public understands nothing of machine learning.
