So, when do we reach a level where AI is better than humans and we remove captcha from pages alltogether? If you don't want bots to read content, don't put it online, you're just inconveniencing real people now.

They can also sign up and post spam/scams. There are a lot of those spam bots on YouTube, and there probably would be a lot more without any bot protection. Another issue is aggressive scrapers effectively DOSing a website. Some defense against bots is necessary.
I use manual verification on first post (note: can probably use an LLM to automate this), or just not have a comment section in the first place. That way, you moderate based on content, not identity or mental ability (which can be discriminatory and is also a losing game, as seen in TFA).
Either that, or just be honest and allow anonymous posting lol
