Discussing strategies for detecting AI agents and crawlers has its apocalyptic comedy. How many humans are bots, and bots humans? If captchas are unsolvable and work unprovable, then you are a bot. But guess what? I’m not smart enough to play captcha!

I can’t believe you’re not a botter? People are machines!
