How can choosing pictures of certain objects (stop signs, cross walks, cars, etc.) prove that you are not a robot on websites?

It seems weird that to prove that I’m human I have to look for certain objects or check a box. Why is that?

Because how bots select images on those questions can be detected as automated by the website. People tend to wander with their mouse, and can pretty easily tell the difference between a traffic light and a street light at first glance. Bots tend to be predictably mechanical in the choices they make.
