The rules are against them but this has a lot of up votes.

I won't lose sleep about one or two but don't personally don't want to see them dominate the community. There are enough meme communities without turning this into one. This community is to help folk in their journey to de-googling which is a difficult and challenging process. It isn't anti-google. Hating google is unproductive and solves nothing, but actively moving away from a company with so little respect for privacy is fantastic.

I don't see how this meme helps folk to transition away, so feels real low value to me.

The point isn't to check whether you're human. That's a pretense. The goal is that you help their AI models to better distinguish objects. Essentially, you're being forced to help train their models. They just can't label it that way.

If I were a robot, we're talking this level of design competence.

Well, free AI training data.
Can't blame them, would do the same if I was an evil mega corporation...

No, see Rule 3.

it’s free labor in training their programs

🤣

What's the anime screenshot source? Have seen it so many times and realize I've never known

Nice try clanker

They're actually replacing humans with robots. It's why they dropped the "Don't be evil" statement. They are checking progress, the question is: "Are you already a robot, or still a disgusting human?"
