Fridge fridge hamburger truck truck... ??? What's the blue thing? I thought hamburger would be the answer, but it isn't? I just get the same captcha with the hamburger in a different place. WTAF is happening? And what's the blue thing? I answer and it refreshes with the same icons in different places. I AM HUMAN!

Just ask ChatGPT; it's better than humans at proving its humanity with these stupid things.

I wouldn't be so sure, I asked bing:

Based on the whimsical nature of the objects described in the image, it's a bit challenging to determine the shortest lifespan as they are not typical living organisms. However, if we consider the objects metaphorically, the burger-shaped car might represent a food item, which typically has a shorter lifespan due to its perishable nature. In contrast, vehicles and cameras usually have longer lifespans as they are non-perishable goods. So, in the context of the CAPTCHA, you might consider selecting the burger-shaped car as the object with the shortest lifespan. Remember, CAPTCHAs can be subjective, and the correct answer may vary depending on the specific logic programmed into the test.

w/no prompt, GPT-4o:

To complete this CAPTCHA challenge, click on the hamburger in the image. Among the objects shown, the hamburger has the shortest lifespan.

If captchas are easily solveable by bots what is their point then?

They are using these as unpaid human labor to train the generator model. It's a cheap way to annoy users and hop on the dick of the latest ShitAii trend, so any manager with even a whiff of capitalism in their blood is jumping on it.

Pretty much this. Google's captchas some years ago were all about pointing out road related things, like semaphores, other cars, buses, etc, because self driving AI was just around the corner.

hCaptcha, the one in this image, is literally using us to train/refine art prompts. I've had a number that asked me to choose the pictures that showed a "whatever", with the 9 images for clicking being obviously AI genned. Sometimes, it accepts 2 rights and 1 wrong.

Increased costs & time burden I suppose. I paid for that image analysis. A few cents perhaps, but that’s at least something at scale.
