para.1
captchastands for“completely automated public turing test to tell computers and humans apart,” so if i’mflubbingthem constantly, then i’m clearly a computer. you’ve probably noticed that captchas are getting more difficult. what started as weird strings of letters to type out without much thought has turned into images that are harder and harder to identify. and that’s before we get into animalrotating, which i’ve yet to get right on the first try. you might be wondering, because it’s 2023, whether ai is to blame for all of this. and it is.
验证码的全称是“用于区别是核算机仍是人类的全主动公共图灵查验”，所以假定我常常犯错，那么显着我是一台核算机。您可以现已留心到了验证码正变得越来越难。一初步是一串新鲜的字母，想都不必想就能打出来，如今逐骤变成了越来越难以看出来的图像。然后接下来呈现了旋滚动物，我还没有初度测验就能成功过。你可以会想，因为如今是2023年，是不是这悉数都怪人工智能。的确如此。

arkose labs, the company that makes the animal-rotatingpuzzle, says on its website that the system is “iteratedagainst machine learning,” which means 
thistorturedevice has been designed specifically because bots can solve other captchas. that you have to rotate the animal is the result of a world in which ai can do even more human tasks. arkose labs and the many other companies that make various kinds of captchas can only keep up by designing tougher and tougher puzzles. at some point, if they can’t, captchas might bedoomed.
制造旋滚动物疑问的arkose labs公司在其网站上标明，该体系是“关于机器学习的迭代”，这意味捉崆专门方案的这个浪费设备，因为机器人可以破解其他验证码。你不得不旋滚动物是因为当今世界里人工智能可以做的人类使命更多了。arkose labs和许多其他制造各种验证码的公司只能经过方案越来越难的标题来跟上人工智能的发展。某种程度上讲，假定他们无法跟上，验证码可以要完蛋了。

every captcha is trying to balance three factors: security, usability, and accuracy. of these three, usability is the one most people think about: a captcha needs to be relatively painless to solve for a wide range of people with varying abilities. the easier you make solving the puzzle, however, the more likely it is that bots will be able to solve it—so you also have to focus on building an accurate system. and then there’s security: a captcha needs to be designed so that no one canhackthe system to get around it entirely. each of these three things are challenging, and ai makes them even harder.
每个验证码都要尽力平衡三个要素：平安性、可用性和精确性。在这三个要素中，可用性是大大都人思考的疑问：一个验证码需要相对无痛地处置不一样才能的大规模人群的疑问。可是，你处置验证码疑问越简略，机器人就越有可以有才能破解它——所以你还有必要把要点放在构建一个精确的体系上。然后是平安疑问：验证码需要方案成没有人可以破解体系然后完全绕过它的方法。这三件事都很有应战性，而人工智能的存在让这件事端得更难了。

all of this could mean that captchas need to become less usable in order to remain secure. it’s not a new problem. captchas have been engaged in anarmsrace against the machines ever since the term wascoinedat carnegie mellon university, in the early 2000s, if not longer. the early approach, based off of a string of distorted text, was created because computers couldn’t identify the characters.
以上这些意味着验证码需要降低自个的可用性然后保证平安性。这不是一个新疑问。翻译划线句，长按文末小程序码打卡，答案下期发布~前期的办法以一串歪曲的文本为基础，是因为核算机无法辨认这样的字符。

谷歌 eventually purchased recaptcha, a company founded by those same researchers, in part because that system had another advantage: the humans solving the captchas were helping digitize books. if a computer couldn’t read a word, 谷歌 wouldstuffit in a captcha and have us do the work. but the machines could soonparsetext with near-perfect accuracy, prompting a pivot toward image identification. bots then quickly got better at recognizing images, leading to captchas with weirder photos and tasks.
谷歌究竟收购了由同一批研讨人员创建的公司recaptcha，有些缘由是该体系还有另一个优势：处置验证码疑问的人也在协助书本完成数字化。假定电脑无法辨认一个单词，谷歌会把它塞进验证码体系中，让咱们做这项作业。这些机器很快就能以近乎完满的精确度解析文本，促进验证码转为了图像辨认。然后，机器人很快地就能更简略地辨认图像，致使呈现了配有更新鲜的相片和使命的验证码。
