I honestly fully expect the traditional captcha experience to go away. With Cloudflare and Fastly both introducing payment schemes for websites to directly charge bots for interactions, I think it flips the captcha game on its head for most use-cases.
Content publishers can now get paid per request, effectively, by bots. This gives bots a more reliable way to access the data than participating in the arms race. Places where captcha served anti-abuse can basically be replaced by “you can make as many requests as you want, pay for each one.”
*if those who scraped the data before wants to sign up for this scheme for no other reason than "why not". Anthropic and other vendors are already starting to limit how much compute you get monthly due to it NOT being financially viable, why would they want to do this if they can simply bypass it?
