Does warmer mean temperature? Color? Something else?

    The most surprising thing is how you and some commenters dont see how obvious and dead simple the answer is

    Like, should they show you a block of ice and a fire next time?

        Am neurodivergent, didn’t even occur to me they’d be talking about snow vs indoors. I thought because it is a visual test they meant color temp which for me registered as the middle left, center bottom, and maybe an argument for bottom right.

        Warm could also translate to “cozy” or overall “hue”. Neither would necessarily pick the indoor photos. I don’t think you need to be neurodivergent to be confused, maybe just a little more artistically minded.

            It’s pretty frustrating when you need to do something relatively quickly and you get a captcha and get it “wrong” like 8 times because of this kind of bs. Especially annoying when you get captchas multiple times. It’s just wasting my time, I don’t have the patience for that shit.

        Thanks for reminding me of my neurodivergence, I couldn’t figure it out either.

        I was starting to think “ok this one looks lit and cozy, and how am I supposed to tell how well insulated these houses are?”

      More surprising is how apparently some of you haven’t encountered captchas that employ nuance, and what seems like the obvious answer sometimes isn’t.

        my man, its a blizzard and indoors, what part of that has any more nuance than being beaten over the head with the answer

          The different snow images have different color tones, some matching that of the example image. The center image has a cool color tone, which doesn’t match. Captchas are made to defeat AI logic, so sometimes it’s not the obvious thing. It could very well possibly be selecting all images that match the color tone, something a bot may not work out. It could be just selecting indoor images. I wouldn’t know for certain until I got one of these and succeeded or failed. Personally I think it would be too easy for a bot to just ignore all images that have snow, or are mostly white, because that doesn’t resemble the example image at all.

          edit: and in case it needs to be said, getting beaten over the head by anything doesn’t involve nuance. That’s the opposite of nuance.

            Captchas aren’t made to “defeat AI logic”, the human detection happens in part outside the picture selection part. The picture selection is for training AI. In this case you are training an AI to distinguish the (potentially abstract) concept of warmth.

            I couldn’t get past “pick the smallest animal”

            There was a large picture of a hummingbird, and a tiny panda. Both choices were wrong, apparently. They probably meant that I should pick the pettiest animal.

            There’s a sample picture of a living room, then pictures of living rooms and snowy houses.

        The thing is that a captcha is made to be solvable by almost anyone.

        So whatever you think the answer is, is probably one of the many correct responses.

      Something that’s obvious to you isn’t necessarily obvious to everyone.
