A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.

For anyone interested, there are some image poisoning tools out there to protect (glaze as example) your att or even attack (nightshade as examle) ai models directly

AFAIK it's very model specific attacks and won't work against other models. Their tool preserving art the same to human eye is great offering, and there's always rigorous watermarking (esp. with strong contrast) as an universally effective option.

Thank you very much for the additional details^^

Watermarking with strong contrast prevents ai from using the images in training? Since when?

It doesn't selectively prevents learning, instead it hinders overall recognition even to the human eyes to some extent. The examples I know are old, but artists once tried to gauge model's capability of i2i from sketches (there's few instances people took artists' wip and feed it to genAI to "claim the finished piece"). Watermaking, or constant tiling all over the image worked better to worsen genAI's recognition than regular noise/dither type filter.

Funnily enough, I've found AI has a lot more trouble imitating primitive stick figure art like that than it does more complex art.

at least AI art can't be copyrighted
