Image based or any kind of visual captchas will never be extremely effective. I think we will see more of PoW captchas in the upcoming years (just like cloudflare's turnstile captcha)

I'm not suer about that, can't you give GPT4 a math problem in an image already and have it solve it correctly most of the time?

And these haven't even been trained to defeat captchas/logic problem captchas yet, if it was fine tuned on the general pattern of them I imagine any form of captcha is bust.

Not sure about PoW. What about people with slower phones etc?

I don't see how an older smartphone could meaningfully outcompute a spamming infra.
