I wish to solve CAPTCHA with bicycles, motorcycles etc. in a manner consistent with chaotic good alignment, benevolence, humanitarianism, etc. Shall I select squares that include riders/passengers but not also their conveyance? Was reminded of my uncertainty about this when reading this recent post by @Wilshire to the Technology community.

Nice try robot
CAPTCHAs are solved by consensus. Whatever the CAPTCHA thinks a bicycle is depends on what people before it selected. Sometimes it doesn’t know and just uses your answer to set up future CAPTCHAs. So you should be thinking: what would other people (or bots) select for the CAPTCHA.
Thank you for the insight. Having little understanding of the purposes of CAPTCHA beyond what is implied by the acronym, I would be concerned if what seems implied in this comment thread were actually true. Clearly there’s a bit of tongue-in-cheek, but it seems reasonable to me as a layman that some implementations could produce data usable to train autonomous driving systems. I realize it’s possible there’s no simple answer to my original question, and wouldn’t be the first time I’ve overthought something.
Is the rider a bicycle?
I do not include the rider when I get bicycle or motorcycle cycle CAPTCHAs. Sometimes it’s correct, sometimes it’s incorrect.

A reference to The Shining, I suppose. If there’s a joke it’s lost on me, sorry. Was kinda fun spending 10min decoding that, though :)
Nice, glad you enjoyed it.
I was just going off of what if OP was a bot trying to trick us into solving the captcha. Went with redrum cuz it’s evil, and more importantly, it was short. Didn’t want to spam a long comment for a silly joke.Op is totally a bot lol
Those are specific items. I don’t see why you would include people.
I don’t include the rider. More confusing are stairs and crosswalks: where do they start and end? Often, there is no crosswalk on the picture but you have to select other road markings to continue. So it doesn’t really matter.
I always include the rider because the picture of the bike is on the street. A bike or motorcycle on a street is “everything I do not want to hit”.
Don’t they have an ai for that? Or is it something the billion dollar systems still can’t manage?
You know the captchas are training the AI, right?
Lol, I would love it if someone coded a plugin that solved all of these captchas for me.
I could probably pay someone $50 a pop to solve it for me for the rest of my life and not reach even 1billion.
