I only read the text, didn’t watch the video, but from the text it didn’t sound like that’s what they were describing. It sounded like they will present images to people and ask them to confirm whether or not there’s an object there?
We introduce “MapTCHA”, a CAPTCHA that leverages the uncertainty of interpreting imagery with computer vision, and provides human verification for AI predictions: users are asked to identify images containing correctly interpreted objects, e.g. building outlines.
Edit: also, here’s the github they seem to be working from - https://github.com/ciupava/maptcha_dev
Edit 2: I hope they succeed, because it would be great to have an open source captcha that benefits everyone.
I’m not sure.
Perhaps getting computer vision that’s reliably better than humans costs a lot of money that a project like OpenStreetMap doesn’t have?
