It amuses me when a website, basically a series of ones and zeros, asks me if I am human? Likewise, realising that the developer has written something for the beauty of the code not for the easy operation of the user. Fundamental stuff really.
AI works fine if you know how to use it but the inconsistency is annoying. I am joining groups on Facebook, just buy and sell groups. I noticed that after 20 a day they'd halt access thinking that I was a robot. So I worked out that the most to join per day would be 16 and for many weeks now, I have limited myself to 16 a day and things are fine, I get to join the groups and they get a new user and participant but Oh No, not this morning, Facebook kicked off at me joining 12 groups (well 11 actually, I was trying to do the 12th when it decided that it would halt me doing that operation).
It's like my Instagram page. I got a message saying that they liked content and I should somehow be encouraged to post more often. So I upped it to twice a day, not a huge increase if you look at other posters who you know everything they've done since they woke up this morning. Anyhow, upped the content to two pasts a day whereupon my account gets suspended for spam activity!! I kid you not. So hold on, you want content and then you don't. You ask for me to up my posting for that is what Instagram is all about and you suspend my account for doing so? I then had to go around the bloody houses and do all sorts of tests to prove I was human and of course, after the sheer inconvenience they tell you that they are protecting me and the users! A short apology by robot and blow me down if two weeks later they didn't do it again.
This is what is wrong with the way they set up algorithms and the way that AI is used. It's a lazy way that p1sses off the user - I'm surprised some of them have any users left. Facebook is turning into a police state. Oh well, just have to live with it I suppose.
