Quote:Machines masquerading as humans have never had it so easy. New artificial intelligence can crack a range of CAPTCHAs — tests commonly used by websites to check if a user is a person or robot — with very little practice.
Inspired by the human brain, a team from an artificial intelligence company in California has developed an algorithm that can be trained up to break complex text-based CAPTCHAs, including those used by PayPal and Google.
And it can do so with 50,000 times fewer training examples than current state-of-the-art programs.
"We just have to accept that, as computer vision systems improve, traditional text-based CAPTCHA systems no longer offer the protection they used to," said study co-author Miguel Lazaro Gredilla of Vicarious AI.
