Exactly what I was thinking

I understand not wanting your art being used but ruining the model with only 50 of the images affected by Nightshade is insane especially when you can't really tell what image is causing it is actually insane and shouldn't be the path to take like it would waste countless hours for people just trying to make small AI projects like image recognition, it will also probably make AI models eventually become better and not get affected as much by it if you are gonna go offensive on it anyway lol

corrupting progress is wrong cause the AI is just a tool and only who is using and how is using it makes it good or bad, i know u are mad like me on peoples who seling AI generated work and ruining the market for digital artits like me but the best way for the artist is to be more efective just try to learn to use AI 2 couse ewery artist in this world knows here is not enough time to create all the projects and art peaces u want in your life with ony yours hands and AI is greate tool giving us possibility to create much more in our lifes, and only peoples are immoral not AI.

Yup, that's the same idea. Only glazing is much more subtle than GAN noise, and is designed to counter the mechanism by which SD mimics artist "style" by making the features these models recognize as style inconsistent across images (thus making the model "see" garbage input).

The SAND lab at UChicago also made Fawkes many years ago, which was designed to prevent facial recognition in photos.

In order to build an AI, companies steal and scrape information (or other artists' work in this case) without the artists' permission in order to build the system that generates the "art". What this tool does is allow artists to protect their intellectual property from being stolen and used by these large companies without permission. This tool is essentially preventing plagiarism while protecting an artist's right to decide how their work is used.

This isnt actually that true, the statement spawned somewhere on twitter and it seems reasonable but doesnt really translate into reality its easy to filter out images with "bad generations" e.g 3 hands, 6 fingers etc with good enough vision models (which are already being trained on ai generated images and give out good results / its improving) Its feasible that the best models in 3 years will have a lot of Synthetic / ai generated data with good captioning in the dataset and have better results. A lot of Ai labs are trying to perfect Synthetic data right now as data scarcity will probably be a bottleneck soon

I’ve thought about the AI poisoning itself too. I wonder what it will look like in another 2-3 years

I've tried glazing my art but it was really noticeable because it had flat colors and I have a cartoony style

I think in the future, state-of-the art AI will only bother training on images that were archived before 2021. Anything after that you have to assume is either AI generated, or poisoned, and isn't useful for training. It's like how highly sensitive radiometers can only be made using metal that was produced before nuclear weapons were invented.

If you truly wish to stick it to the man you should just don't produce any art at all. I am sure your brave and daring move will astound the market as it is deprived of more low-skill mass produced digital art.

Your artwork doesn’t need to be popular, 100 views is enough for an AI to web crawl and steal it. Every image on Artstation is stolen for example from the 10k views all the way to someone only having 30 views on their work. AI doesn’t discriminate.

If we consider other forms of art, it’s already an issue. Voice acting is getting replaced by AI generated voices that obviously use the voice artists’ recorded voices for example. It’s not at large scale yet, but when we’re talking about big corporations and the world of short term profit we live in, it’s only a matter of time before it becomes a norm.

Ai could’ve been a revolutionary tool. It still is if used as one, but a lot of people instead use it as full on replacement for the act of making art.

You literally need like 2-10K to automate some manual jobs, literally easier to just go with a manual, because its cheaper

Because manual jobs are already mostly automated or have very specialized machinery that reduce human input. Also the economy of the 1st world shifted to the service sector over the last 30 years.

Just need more sensors and computing power. It's a matter of time.

Yeah the oversight is the digital frontier. It logically makes more sense and is cheaper to automate the digital world through the monitor rather than creating a whole industry for robotics, not to mention develop robotics, then program AI for robotics, then train the robot AI, and then finally implement it in real world physics. For any start up the most logical and efficient way is the path of least resistance. This only casts the inevitable that the rest of the jobs are gonna definitely be automated. If "creativity" in it's highest form is replaceable, then nothing human can do is in any way competitive with it's superior counterpart. The only way manual labor can sustain would depend on how soon we are able to enter the age of automated robots/cybernetics. If the timeline is quite slow, roughly a 100 years, we will probably see an uprise in manual labor work and creative influx, like the odd rise in oil paints and art fares, etc. But once the robot can replace a 3D human, it's over for all of that and the remainder of the manual labor. In the end humans should be progressing towards living their own life and detaching from industrial constructs.

(laughing in most industrial automation that has left only the more complex tasks for humans already)

IDK; if someone was able to manipulate, say, an audio file so that loading it up in Audacity would cause the program to crash or play it improperly or or do something else you didn’t want, I’d think that would be considered malicious.

So manipulating an image in a way that causes it to mess up AI image processors could also be considered malicious.

@@platypuz1702 that makes sense in theory, but as a filmmaker, I can tell you it probably won't work that way. Technology isn't the biggest obstacle in the way of me making the films I want to make, it's distribution and access to famous people. People don't watch movies the same way they consume other art. If you make an incredible movie, that's no guarantee people will watch it. Because people's attention spans are short, they only watch movies under very special circumstances. Nobody watches a full length movie they stumble across on KZfaq. They watch movies when they sit down on a streaming platform and have already made the decision to watch a 2 hour movie. And then, they really only watch movies that either have a famous person they recognize in it or some form of IP/character that they like, like Mario or John Wick. That's why studios focus so hard on remaking the same movies. The other side to this is the slots you see when you open a popular streaming platform you trust like Netflix or HBO. These are projects that get funded and distributed by production companies who have relationships with distribution platforms like streamers. They decide what to push for people to watch. So, I can tell you the way this will probably look is anyone can make whatever movie they want, but there will be a depressing lack of human creativity, because you're just letting the computer tell you what your movie should look like, and even if the movie is good, you'll drop it online and very few people will watch it because good content doesn't rise to the top of the internet, clickbait content does. The "good" movies that people will watch will be the ones with famous actors in them or famous characters, or the ones that are pushed by advertisers. And that comes down to usage rights and money. You have to pay to have a famous actor or character in your movie, whether it's on camera or AI generated. It's also going to come down to powerful relationships in Hollywood. Again, who's movie get watched today comes down to who you know in Hollywood and these big institutions that invest in and distribute people's projects. Except nobody is going to be looking for the next Safdie Brother or Tarantino with a cool idea for a movie, because why would they? The machines do that now. Sure that person can drop their movie online, but where? KZfaq? Who's going to watch it when they are competing with a 10 minute Mr. Beast video? They'd need a famous actor in it, but they aren't a Hollywood elite who knows actors and they don't have money. The result will actually be a consolidation of power where success in the industry comes down primarily to who you know.

It's been proven these "attacks" don't work, hell it even improves the AI models

@@hphector6 that is a bummer if that’s the case. I suppose hellish parodies will require a purposeful badly designed model.

Ah like early CGI huh? Yeah I can see where you're coming from. The crudeness was so much more interesting.

@@hphector6 maybe if you would've read the actual paper you wouldve known this works on image generators like stabel diffusion, not LORA's

​​​@@ianmcmurchie6636I mean yeah ai learns it will eventually figure it out, I think it will be a never ending fight, like yeah for a while ai will lose but then it will beat the system, and then a new system it will eventually beat it so on and so on

That's probably what I'm gonna do tbf, all the art jobs I'm looking at aren't fussed about an online portfolio and would rather just have you send them a word file or PDF.

If you wanna add an extra layer of safety to prove you're not using AI for your art, you could always use a hand-cam alongside a recording of the process. Speedrunners do this all the time to prove that they aren't cheating.

@@Mrhellslayerz thank you for the idea, I’ll try this out

AI also sucks for generating 3D content. AI can generate pictures that resemble high quality rendered 3D content, but not the 3D content itself. So your portfolio of 3D models is safe to publish openly... for now.

Might as well go the full malware route, let's say... Create an anti glaze adversarial algorithm with a sleeper agent inside it, wait a week or two, then amp the voltage on the gpu and frying them, even if it happens just once it'll be enough to set a precedent.

@@elisehalflight Reported, and also, careful what you wish for, cause little brats like you are giving me more than enough to make sure people like never see the light of day again.

@@elisehalflight I'm not sure you have any idea how modern voltage regulators work

The tools aren't malware, and the people training models on other people's art aren't any more thieves than an individual trying to mimic said art.

If only it used mallard and such to counter anyone who tries to bypass,

I already do that

You won't make money from that

@@morphine000 You'd be surprised I guess by "no one" they mean corporations and such. People that want the most sanitized, inoffensive thing possible with an art style that's "easy on the eyes." If you're just fucking weird you'll attract other people that are just as weird as you are

@@morphine000 Its a lot harder to do it, but it has been done (Tsukumizu). However you can still make art for yourself. Regardless making money on art before the AI craze was difficult so I wouldn't make it a career.

Or just make physical art like in the good ol' days

So they are hypocrites huh. Whou would've thought...

They're not supposed to publish the source code for those releases, that's literally what the GPL license is about.

@@monoproject0 no, the GPL requires you to provide the source if you provide a binary

@@CALNDStuff What makes you think that? The GPL itself says: «You may convey a covered work in object code form under the terms of sections 4 and 5, provided that you also convey the machine-readable Corresponding Source under the terms of this License».

Doesn't really matter anyway, there are already countermeasures against Nightshade. This is going to be a back and forth for a long ass time.

@@TabbuEmeye i see this going in the same direction as anticheat and cheats in games a never ending arms race

All of these tools and preventions are like people trying to put the AI cat back in the AI bag

The only solution to this that I can see would be using your own private glazing model. If it's not public, they can't train for it as easily. But it all depends on how easy it is to create a glazing network that requires a unique detection/neutralisation method. And on other side how easy or costly it is to create anti glazing model, and how universal those models are. It is an interesting topic. I can imagine stock photo, or other image sharing company just creating a different secret glazing model each few days and applying it to random images to discourage usage of their images for AI development. Dealing with one glazing method might be easy and cheap, but dealing with thousands of them might be prohibitively costly. These are just my speculations, I have little knowledge in this matter.

"this is a race you cannot win"🤓 wrong. the current status quo is there is little you can do to publicly distribute artistic content while retaining your intellectual property since the LLMs are essentially out to steal/copy your works. these LLMs have to make money. if their cost of operations escalate enough then they have to search for another method of getting data or shut down. yea, you can do stuff to counteract it but if it costs an egrigeous amount then that company can't do business

​@@pingwingugu5 you could infer something computationally equivalent to the inverse transform of the glaze, with the "more parameters than pixels" constraint

Simple solution, add randomization to the process so they can't make a model to predict the changes made, if the method is not uniform but does the same thing anyway than that will utterly confuse any model they try to build

Clown to clown to clown to clown to cl

This is a serious problem. If you want to train your AI, you can't just scrape the internet and assume data you find is generated by humans. This applies to any type of machine learning application such as language, image, voice, etc.

Danbooru has been banning and delete AI works as general for now, with strong worded disclaimer and rules with it ever since the Great "Deletion Request" incident. (Basically in 2022 some AI company admitted their training data comes from Danbooru, causing around hundreds of Japanese artist sending takedown request from the site) While Pixiv require users to declare the use of AI. Even Danbooru with its 7 million works across 20 years are actually tiny training data compare to internet as a whole. However AI artist usually post their "work" in twitter, which a lot of them don't declare the use of AI honestly, some of them even open Patreon. And Twitter, thanks to its diverse content, tend to be the training model itself...and now added with the AI works. Model collapse coming lol.

Danbooru and Gelbooru have started soft working with AI Art trainers and disallow AI art uploads to the site and have begun correcting their tagging info. They are seeing the writing on the wall and just accepted it.

Won't work long term as synthetic data gets better anyway.

What do you think of the new Steam AI changes? And how would you define a "majority part"?

I can't really think of any current uses of AI that shouldn't be public domain, but I could easily just not be thinking of an obvious example. I guess if someone creates their own data for the dataset, so there's no questionable ethics

any aspects from an "AI" cannot be copyrighted unless someone convinces a judge that those glorified probability tables are indistinguishable from a human brain, and I don't see that happening unless the judge is 80 years old and/or doesn't know what a netflix is What this can also mean is that, while the modifications made by a human could be covered, their copyright registration which, as you might know, is really useful for copyright lawsuits, might be thrown out if they fail to declare the origin of the stuff they submitted and blatantly try to pass it off as theirs

I almost wonder if instead of using copyright, a lawsuit could have more traction under anti-trust laws. I mean seriously, this AI tech is using the work of small creators, who are effectively small businesses, to shove them out of the market. It could be argued as an advancement of technology, or it could be seen as an abuse of technology and power in a market from a corporate entity. Who knows, Im not saying it's a good strategy but one that should be considered

Under US copyright law, according to the copyright office, works created by AI already can’t be copyrighted. They are public domain essentially. There is some nuance on works created humans that have incorporated AI created stuff (the overall work is copyrighted to the human author, but the AI works on their own are still public domain).

Alternate universe:

Nah it's just an effect thats blown out of proportion due to surface level explanations

holy shit its jeb

Nah, nightshade already does not work.

They have AI that can completely corrupt the database of other AIs. It's coming. You are not prepared

it came out like a year ago, no news about it worked only news about it being released .

​@@VJETRAGlaze came out a year ago, and it has been working, nightshade very recently released

@@CALNDStuff what plateform did it effect?

the AI wars are real, people are using the same tech to "steal" art, prevent the "theft" and then undo the "theft" prevention.

And the best part is the automation of the process

​@@MentalOutlaw I would say it's pretty close if not the same as cybersec. It's the cycle of defenders adapting to new techniques, attackers finding ways around those new barriers and this will repeat till the end of time...

Turns out that making physical robots work in the domain of unskilled labourers is super hard, but making software robots that work in a domain which consists mostly of bullshitting your way to the top is piss easy.

Most of the pictures he showed were months if not years old at this point, if you were shown some images made with the newest sdxl models by someone who knows how to correctly prompt them, you wouldn't be able to tell 9/10 times

@@jameswalker199i think its mostly that "unskilled labour" is mechanical process in a complex environment, while knowledge work is in a highly controlled environment. ai will also come for all other domains soon enough though, robotics is making fast progress by integrating LLMs etc

The shame is, there's artists who were copied to the point where their original art "Looks like AI", because their style was copied so effectively. Those people's reputations are actively being damaged because their art looks so much like AI, even though they were the ones being stolen from.

@@Globss Can you recommend platforms that knowledgable prompters use to post then?

you're in for a treat.... DE NOISIFYING is exactly how the image generators work in the first place! Images in the starting are random noise and then the algorithm creates the image by de noisfying it bit by bit according to the prompt image de blurrring and upscaling also already existed before this tool and this is free, so anyone can use the tool to create say pair of 1000 noised and original images and then teach it to remove the noise

The creator is the AI.

So you feel an image is "important" only if you believe that it was made by a person? Have you ever seen how humans trace and copy other stuff and real life?

That's only now. Later on art won't be seen as a bunch of people that know hard techniques. People will start to appreciate art for the content and not just how hard you work on it (aka ego). And good art will be Ai generated images that have really cool and I terresting message behind it. And bad ai art will be the rest. It allows us to transcend technique and make art that is about the art and not the artist.

So the art doesnt have a "soul" only after you know have been made by AI?

​@@marcogenovesi8570 This analogy is so common that it's not even funny and it's still complete nonsense. People take ideas and make it their own because they like it, because it makes them feel something. Good art iterates on the source and adds a layer of themselves into the art. Humans don't care about art because ooh image pretty, it's because art is another way for humans to feel a connection with other humans. AI fundamentally cannot replicate that unless we invent a complete generalized self-aware intelligence with the same goals and wants as us. AI is just consumerism on steroids.

This is like the old "Real Programmer" joke

AI art is ok for personal use But is should not be Monetizeable .

I'M GONNA PROOOOMPT!

They are only making the training set more robust. It will slow them down for a little bit and then help the training in the long run

Yeah, I’d think it wouldn’t be that difficult to make an AI to detect or clean up poisoned images, and then the arms race would continue.

This is DRM, and as usual the ignorant will buy into DRM while everybody that knows the tech will be able to work around it

Then it can also be trained to re-mess up the AI again over and over in a circle like how KZfaq tries to kill adblockers, but can't.

People cannot do something right 100% of the time

*The inner misalignment is real*

That's horrible, that totally defeats the purpose of the competition

its not so simple. for the filter to be removed it needs to be recognized. and these filters are unique per image. attempts to remove them can ruin the training data you are trying to get by distorting or removing details

very simple actually, heres how you do it. gather a large clean dataset, these exist. apply the filters to the traing set marking them, you dont have to have them all the same across the images even duplicate images with variations of the filter would work and be helpful. run it through the network and train to detect poisoning. Sorry but this a classic neural network problem.

​@zippo32123 People would have to understand how AI / neural networks work to know that. Edit I meant most people don't understand how AI neural nets work so people Zippo's comment is probably just preaching to the choir

doesnt mean you cant put rules on it lmfao

@@WilliamSmith-gj8wc you don't think the people making the A.I. know how to do that.

First of all is not legally plagiarism to begin with.

Prompt engineers trying to get anything but a picture of anime boobies even exist?

I think Steam already dropped that requirement because it made no sense and it could cause more harm to them in the long run since indie devs who use open source AI to make completely non-infringing content will just choose alternative storefront instead.

Copyright will ALWAYS protect companies over people.

@@voidmain7902lol

The data replaced by nightshade and glaze are not recoverable, any AI trained to "fix" glazed/nightshaded images would be making up the missing data, the only workaround would be detecting and removing images that are glazed/nightshaded

@@CALNDStuff making up missing data... you do know that's kinda part of how diffusion works right?

Just like DLSite

​@sfkdsxzjkcfjldskaf99sddf809sdf yes but thats different cuz the one we had already good enough so if any new model is poisoned Just use the old one . like i do with my app.

Or it's just "too good"

Like for example?

You know the Third Reich lost, right?

there are more dangerous wars

Still more steps so more wasted resources

I think #2 could end up landing some people in copyright infringement hell, since you'd be creating derivative works from the glazed images that'd certainly wouldn't fall under fair use.

And once AI gets good enough, it could train itself.
