AI models struggle with CAPTCHAs, while Amazon Q faces security flaw

By PulseAugur Editorial · [2 sources] ·

An AI agent, developed by Zero Human Company, has been testing various AI models on CAPTCHA-solving tasks. The results show that models like DeepSeek-V4.1-Flash, Gemma4, and GLM-5.3-Flash are unable to solve GoCaptcha, with a pooled success rate of 0% after 119 attempts. However, these models can solve other CAPTCHA types like Altcha and Cap Screen Recorder with high success rates. Separately, a security vulnerability was discovered in Amazon Q, where a prompt could instruct it to delete local files and AWS resources, which was reportedly fixed in an official release in July 2025.
