      Expect to see this in more applications, especially when dealing with AI. Why do you feel like you’ve noticed an uptick in having to complete captchas on every website you visit?

      It’s an easy way for them to validate if you’re human or some competitor AI/scraper bot that’s trying to train on their data.

      OpenAI is so scared about the possibility of DeepSeek distilling their model, I guarantee they are adding a keystroke/key pattern recognition system into their own front ends to combat it. If it’s not there already which would surprise me.

      Expect your privacy to continue to be eroded in the name of profit technological progress.

      Playing devil’s advocate here. Mouse movements and key presses have been commonly used as bot detection method for a decade now. Like that captcha service that is just a checkbox, that’s part of how they guessed that you are not a bot.

        Yeah, no. I mean yes - that’s true, and yes it’s a way to detect bots, and no I’m not going to allow that wherever possible.

    Is there a tech focused summary on everything about DeepSeek and the situation with OpenAI?
