#2In effect, Google computer vision got so good that they made their own system obsolete. This is a good thing.
I still think the only reliable way to confirm identity (or humanity) online is an email or SMS verification. Recently, receiving a 2-factor SMS code took less time than the page refresh prompting me to enter it.

#3"CAPTCHA images correctly solved by the algorithm" - Ok. Now I have to consider the possibility of being a machine.

That confirms identity, but it doesn't confirm humanity. Robots just need to have a SIM card!
I think it would annoy many human users as well.

#699% is probably better than my success rate with reCAPTCHA...

#8I'm impressed that their address identification algorithm can solve those CAPTCHAs. I can't make heads or tails of them.

#10Interestingly I activated a new gmail account today and during the signup process I experienced the obligatory captcha. It was in two parts, the first looked strikingly like a street view picture of a house number, while the second looked like a traditional captcha.
I suspect that google has been using techniques like this to validate their computer vision conclusions. Which makes their 99% assertion even more interesting, because it's likely 99% confirmed by a very large crowd sourced data set, not simply a staff member going through several hundred samples to come up with the success rate.
