'Yes, I am a human': Bot detection is no longer working—and just wait until AI agents come along

Modern AI tools, such as Google Vision and OpenAI's CLIP, demonstrate capabilities that far surpass human performance in image and text recognition tasks. AI can complete visual and textual Captchas within fractions of a second, undermining their effectiveness. This has led to real-world issues, including bots monopolizing online bookings for services like driving tests and concert tickets.

The Guardian reported that automated systems are frequently used to secure limited slots, resulting in unfair market practices.
