From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Imagine if billions of users per day selected the wrong options. So much chaos
Given the number of bots on the internet trying to crack captchas, this is already happening. I don't think captchas are being used for AI training that much, since hCaptcha uses AI-generated images with prompts like "Select the images with a hamster eating a watermelon" for its tests. All of the reCaptcha road captchas I receive also have answer validation and won't let me pass if I answer incorrectly because of a misclick.
