Hi Product Hunt! πŸ‘‹πŸ½ I made this project in response to the prevalence of GPT-based/similar AI chat systems in our day-to-day life, and the fear that you may never know if you're really talking to a human. I'm calling this the world's first proof of humanity as a service (PoHaaS). The inspiration for Captcharoo came when I saw articles about CupidBot, an AI-powered bot that pretends to be a human on dating apps: The AI algorithm will β€œswipe on girls that are just your type and constantly works to get high quality matches,” and then a chatbot talks with the women, until they agree to go on a date and arrange a time and place to meet. The date then gets added to the CupidBot user's calendar. β€” Vice article I'm in favor of building tools that fight against the AI-ification of our human interactions, so that's where Captcharoo comes in. Next time you're chatting with someone on a dating app, slide them a Captcharoo! About me: I'm Gautham. I'm a Design Technologist based in NYC, and I build fun side projects like this in my spare time. You can find me at GuamHat on twitter!
