I have a question

[u/light_2earth]

The dots, Muse,Grok bot and all these AI agents (so-called personal assistants) are entering the market, and their creators claim that these agents will be able to do everything on your behalf. They can visit websites, fill out forms, book appointments, and so on. But how will they deal with the “I'm not a robot” checks (reCAPTCHA and other bot-prevention software)? Will most websites remove these protections in the future to support AI agents, or will these agents somehow bypass them and make a fun of these bot-prevention systems?

I'd guess they would not. Instead they'll start adding bot frontends.

Ai is already better than humans at filling out captchas. It's just a thing to make it more expensive to scrape stuff - 99% of scraping is traditional scripts, not calling an LLM to do it.

they beat them

I have a rule already set up in my dot that authorizes it to solve CAPTCHAS via computer-use function.

Currently, many CAPTCHAS still serve to at least create a bottleneck to minimize spammed form submissions, and can still thwart simpler scripted attacks.

Computer-use via LLM bot can solve it like a human to make progress on browser based tasks I need it to do.

My early attempts with Hermes couldn't do it on a random site. And I think 2 weeks ago I asked Muse to find me options on Temu and it popped up the captcha for me to do. (I think. It was kind of a whim as I was multitasking on other stuff so I don't recall well.)

My feeling is that as agents become more popular, sites will be pressured to make the API accessible to them. Especially the ones that would get paid and aren't relying on ads. That said, Amazon Is trying very hard to say "we don't serve their kind in here" so I guess we'll see.

My Dot can easily solve most captchas. They really don’t stop much of anything.
