'ChatGPT can solve 100% of these before I can': HBO Max Subscriber Mocks Impossible 'Human Test' Used for Accessing the Service

Proving you're not a robot is one of the most stressful parts of logging in to anywhere (a close second is forgetting a password). While staring at the standard distorted string of numbers and letters, it's easy to convince yourself that maybe you are part cyborg. These precautions might be in place for a reason, but they are a massive headache that only seem to be getting more intricate as time goes on.

One TikToker has proved this recently as he demonstrated the lengthy and ridiculous process of trying to access the HBO Max service. Walking us through a pair of intricate yet buggy tests, viewers almost couldn't believe that the whole thing was legitimate. Perhaps the best part was that after all that, he didn't even seem to have a login. If we've managed to make robots that people are convinced can take our jobs, surely the whole thing is a kind of pointless exercise anyway?
