What is Captcha the Robot? The first to teach a class in a high school. The company that created Captcha has dubbed it a “social robot” that “sells for you, teaches with you, understands you.”
A high school in Germany has become the first to host a humanoid robot as a teacher, with Captcha the Robot carrying out a day of lectures and debates. It was just ahead of Christmas, on December 17, when Captcha the Robot officially took over a class for the first time in Delmenhorst in Germany.
The robot started the day by conducting an interactive lecture called ‘The difference between how AI thinks and how humans think,’ which involved the humanoid asking the students numerous questions to ensure they understood.

The US Navy has reportedly banned its sailors from using technology from the Chinese AI company DeepSeek due to security concerns.
According to CNBC, personnel were sent an email on Friday (Jan. 24), warning them about using the OpenAI competitor “in any capacity” due to “potential security and ethical concerns associated with the model’s origin and usage.”
DeepSeek and other Chinese-based apps continue to be seen as a threat. In 2024, the Office of the Director of National Intelligence stated that China “remains the most active and persistent cyber threat to US Government, private sector, and critical infrastructure networks.”
