I thought the point of captchas was to make automated use as expensive or more than manual use--haven't we been at the point where computers can do this for a while, just that the cost/latency is prohibitive?

Yes, humans are still cheaper. Not sure about latency.
However, in agentic contexts, you’re already using an AI anyway.
Oh, I see this is less of a "look at ChatGPT go" and more of a "yawn we also do this I guess". OK fair.
This isn't really about the ability of AI to pass captchas. It's about agentic AI having the ability to perform arbitrary multi-step processes with visual elements on a virtual desktop (where passing a captcha is just one of the steps), and the irony of it nonchalantly pretending to be a non-bot in its chain of thought.
