Protect your art against ai!

just a reminder that Meta (owners of Facebook), Elon Musk (X owner), and tumblr can use your art that you post there to train ai. Facebook/instagram have an opt out form that must be filled out in order to keep them from using your art. I haven’t found an opt out form on X yet but if you know of one please share it. Make sure you watermark and or sign all your posted works!! And always keep an eye out for more ways to protect your art that may be available on certain apps!!

here’s a couple of links with ways to protect your art

The Glaze Anti-AI tool for artists

Since Glaze was just released, I figured I should give it a test run and let you all know how it goes.

This tool is specifically designed to thwart generative AI attempts to mimic art styles. Link to the tool: https://glaze.cs.uchicago.edu/index.html

Before:

After:

Now, it did warn me that due to the settings I used, this image might not have adequate protection:

Takeaways:

It did mess with my watermark on the existing image, so I'd run it on an un-watermarked version and add the watermark afterward.

The glaze effect is most noticeable on areas with large blocks of the same color/flat colors. They admit to this on their website, in the Risks and Limitations section of the "What is Glaze" page.

I appreciate that it warns you when there's not enough protection.

This actually took a long time to glaze; it was about an hour at these settings. However, I was also using Google Chrome, Discord, and Spotify at the time. When I closed my other programs, it sped up significantly. I do not recommend running this on a mobile device.

This tool is still being developed, and improvements are underway.

It really sucks that we must resort to this, but we gotta do what we can to protect our work. Overall, this tool is extremely promising. I'm definitely willing to use it.

It's a tool developed to stymie AI art theft. It affects pixels in the picture in such a way that the change isn't visible to the human eye, but damages the ability of current AI image generation methods to mimic the piece.

Even if you aren’t big you still have the ability and right to copyright claim reposts of your works

An artist : Aw man! I saw my arts were reposted on Instagram. I’ve asked them to take my arts down but they ignored me.

Me : Say no more! Click this link, then click ‘fill out this form’. Fill the form and wait for about 1-2 days, the staffs will remove the image you were reporting from the reposter’s account :^)
