The Chess Captcha

We should enjoy these CAPCHAs as long as we can. When the machines have taken over they will make mate in 20 moves CAPCHAs to make sure no human can enter.

Yes, they'll have to protect their sites where they play games like Emotion. In Emotion you win if you succeed in making your silicon opponent happy, or scared, or sad, or fall in love with you. But they'll have to watch for cheating players who consult humans.

In the Matrix, the explanation for keeping humans around was they were a power source. This always seemed absurd. Clearly, they were really just solving CAPTCHAs for the machines.

To be honest,We all can solve the checkmate captcha in lichess but some of the newbies who just joined chess and don't know the moves yet cannot.So I request for like a replacement of captcha with some others taks

But Lichess provides free training, enabling the uninitiated user to familiarise themselves with the game, prior to commencing any contests with rated/unrated opponents.

Is this actually a problem? Or just a hypothetical scenario? That is, how many people who don't know how to play chess join a chess playing site and before learning any chess, they want to post in the forum?
