Literally every single time I try open their app, I get asked to click the button again to verify that I am indeed human.

On top of that, it doesn’t always work for some mysterious reason, occasionally it ends up short circuiting and looping for a while before showing me the prompt again, and only lets me in on the second or third attempt.

I do realize that since I AM using a VPN to access it, I might be seeing this prompt more frequently than others, but many other sites use the same CloudFlare protection mechanism and I have yet to see one that shows me the prompt as frequently as OpenAI does.

Just thought it’s funny because it’s literally a bot asking me to verify that I’m not a bot.

      Well, I just did. Here’s the response:

      I’m sorry if it feels like I’m questioning your humanity! I’m just programmed to ensure a safe and productive interaction. Sometimes I ask for confirmation to ensure I’m talking to a human and not a machine or a bot. But I’m here to chat and assist you with whatever you need!

      Not sure what I was expecting except the usual machine mind evasiveness.
