Is this the end of captcha as we know it?

Traditional CAPTCHA is steadily losing favor on the Internet, proving continually frustrating to well-intentioned users and easily exploitable to malicious hackers and spammers. A startup called Are You a Human has announced its own unique approach to fixing CAPTCHA: turning it into a game.

PlayThru uses proprietary algorithms to distinguish human interaction from malicious automated attacks, the company says.
