You can try it out here: https://www.google.com/recaptcha/api2/demo If you are a recognized as human you could perhaps try it via Tor.
I wish these google pages wouldn't automatically assume you speak some language based on your IP address - I get mine in German without any option to switch. Aren't there standards for setting language in web browsers?
Yes, the Accept-Language HTTP header.

On what page did you tested the new system?

I don't think they can predict this from the way I touch the screen >.<
It's definitely not only relying on cursor movements. A simple $('iframe').contents().find('.recaptcha-checkbox-checkmark').click() proved that I'm not a robot, without me touching the mouse.
It says that they do take mouse movement into account but the cookie part makes me feel a little uneasy: > IP addresses and cookies provide evidence that the user is the same friendly human Google remembers from elsewhere on the Web.

"In cases when the risk analysis engine can't confidently predict whether a user is a human or an abusive agent, it will prompt a CAPTCHA to elicit more cues"
So if you have cookies disabled, you'll probably just get a regular captcha
Think of Captcha as the first battle in humanity's fight against AI. Over the long term this problem has no solution.
Except by answering captchas, you're helping the machines (first words for books, then numbers for street view, now pictures for classification).
I never understood how that works, though. If I get a captcha street address wrong then that means they already had the answer, so how am I contributing?
It's definitely not mouse based. I tried it in an incognito tab and it showed me the old form when I clicked the checkbox.
I'd think that having a long-standing google account with a normal history of activity would be a good indication that one might be a human. If google is weighting that heavily for this test, that may create a new incentive for spammers and scammers to hijack people's google accounts.

It's only used to generate a confidence level. "In cases when the risk analysis engine can't confidently predict whether a user is a human or an abusive agent, it will prompt a CAPTCHA to elicit more cues" So if you have cookies disabled, you'll probably just get a regular captcha

Google collects all your data and applies machine learning to predict a probability value that you are human. If it is below a certain threshold you have to enter a CAPTCHA.
The question was more about on how the new captcha works, I guess.
I can not find any documentation about how to put in the new reCAPTCHA if you already using their older version...
