You will no longer be required to solve annoying Captchas to prove you are not a Robot

No Captcha reCaptcha

We all know how annoying it is to solve Captchas, typing those illegible bits of numbers and texts to prove you are not bot while gaining access to a restricted area or registering for a new service. Google has been using reCaptcha which they acquired in 2009 to keep protect sites and spam by bots. Now, Google is ready to launch better version of reCaptcha that will make the process much easier.
 Now you won’t have to enter a set of number or text to verify you are not a robot, you will only be asked to simply tick a checkbox which says you are not a robot and that is it. Now the question is why would Google make such a change? Well, due to capability of Artificial intelligence technology to solve even the most difficult Captcha with 99.8% accuracy the concept of captcha protection is no longer viable.  Google is calling its new version of reCaptcha as No Captcha reCaptcha, though the new version seems quite basic and even less protective but the technology behind it is quite impressive.

For reCaptcha Google developed an advanced risk analysis system that will monitor each aspect of engagement before, during and after solving the Captcha. With the help of this Google will take into account many factors like the previous site from where the visitor came from, mouse cursor movement, etc. to see if it’s a bot or human. No Captcha reCaptcha is currently live on few sites including Snapchat, WordPress and Humble Bundle.
