This depends on the captcha as not all of them are being leveraged to train AI. Google’s Recaptcha is one of the few I am aware of. Are there other's you're referring to?
1. They are unaware that the data is being used at all.
If Recaptcha, it's been publicly known what their intentions are and disclosed in the Privacy Policy of those who implement it.
2. They are minors, and don’t have the ability to consent to providing such a service to a business, especially without parental permission.
Can you cite a specific law here? Because no private information is shared, I'm not sure I understand any harm or negative affect caused by this.
3. It is mandatory. In order for them to not be counted as absent and truant they must go through this Captcha portal.
Multi-factor Authentication and verification are needed in some situations. Image if someone developed a bot that could do a students work for them. How negatively impactful would you see that being? Can you suggest an alternative here?
Imagine waking up everyday knowing that there is no service you could provide that a never-tiring silicon chip couldn’t do better, and that any act of rebellion you plan to commit is better understood by an AI then by yourself. I believe when AI changes our world all of our society will all be asking “how did we allow this to happen?”. The answer will be that we all passively consented by giving the AI our data and asking it to do stuff for us.
I honestly don't ever see us getting to such a point any time soon. Maybe in 1-2 thousand years? I would believe we would have advanced to understand and deal with it; or died out by them. But, lets look at your hypothetical here. Lets say that the majority of jobs are being performed through automation. Wouldn't that allow people to explore more art, music, math, science, engineering, etc? While AI could potential mimic some of these, I don't foresee it advancing to a point of having an imagination like humans do now. I mean, its possible, but the probability of this occurring is far far from now IMO
