    The last one is popping up as age verification. And it’s done with a camera now because otherwise anyone just sends in an AI generated picture of a face, and people don’t trust companies with government id.

      I’d say countdown to programs that pretend to be webcams and display an AI video of the requested action has started but I bet at least someone has already done it. And then the arms race between actions to be requested and what AI can do will start until eventually passing the test will be a fail because the actions requested are either too difficult for humans to understand or too difficult for humans to perform, at which point AIs will be trained on knowing the physical limitations of humans.

      This will come in handy for when they get tired of our shit.

        Or they’ll demand very intrusive DRM like verification that it’s really a webcam and really a live feed. Then it’ll be only approve hardware, and it won’t work for a bunch of people, the verification itself causes malware to spread and people stay away. The future is going to be stupid.

        They’ve existed for quite a long time at this point.

        That’s how virtual puppetry/V-Tubing works. The camera tracks your face, and then moves part of a corresponding model, and unlike face posing inside of Garry’s Mod, or something like that, since it’s bound to a real face, it would move more or less like a human face.

        eventually passing the test will be a fail because the actions requested are either too difficult for humans to understand or too difficult for humans to perform, at which point AIs will be trained on knowing the physical limitations of humans.

        This also exists for some forms of captcha, which track how you complete a puzzle, or something along those lines. A bot would either be completely stumped, complete it far more quickly than a human would, or do it by snapping their cursor to the relevant parts, instead of moving it.

          On yeah, the little mouse puzzles. I always figured it wouldn’t be that hard to give cursor movement a more natural curve, just give it an interpolation that clamps the first 3 derivatives of position and adds jitter and a little overshoot and correction or clamps the derivatives even harder at the end to mimic slowing down for precision.
