it gets worse when you factor in translation problems.

lets take google/recaptcha/hcaptcha image captchas. english: "click on the images with bikes" this could mean motorbikes or bicycles in english.

in german it says "klicken sie die bilder mit den fahrrädern". fahrrad meaning bicycle exklusively! a motorbike would be "motorrad". then the images will show no bicycles so you skip - wrong - so you click on the motorbikes - wrong - oh there is one image that shows a (german) "motoroller" (a scooter) maybe they mean that? click - correct

this goes on an on and on. they have so many problems with their translations its infurating. i stopped filling them out when not absolutely necessary

[polytely]

wonder how this affects the models that are trained on the data generated by these capcha's? will german motor cyclists be less safe because of this
