Researchers from the University of Toronto have developed an AI platform capable of convincing Google's reCAPTCHA system that it is human. The researchers say their new system, called DeepFace, can be trained to fool a machine learning algorithm used by Google and other search engines into thinking it's human, even though its owner has no facial features. While most CAPTCHA systems no longer use mouse-tracking analysis as an initial test, they will often use the method to confirm that users are not bots.

The scientists used reinforcement learning to outsmart the system by creating an automated platform which can successfully mimic human mouse-movement in a way that convinces reCAPTCHA it is not dealing with a bot. While most CAPTCHA systems no longer use mouse-tracking analysis as an initial test, they will often use the method to confirm that users are not bots.
