For traditional text captchas, bots are better than humans. Flow usally goes, pay humans to solve 50000 ($500) then train an ML model. For things like recaptcha things get harder because it is not easy to proxy the captcha puzzles to have humans solve them (which is nessary to collect training data).

Why do you need to proxy anything? If you're just collecting training data, seems easy to record the interaction with a browser extension?
Because I want to pay people in the 3rd world to solve them for me. There are a bunch of services that take crypto or PayPal and solve captchas with humans. Using those systems requires you download the image, send to service, get response (proxy is not 100% accurate)
