AI Scraping Isn't Just Art And Fanfic

Something I haven't really seen mentioned and I think people may want to bear in mind is that while artists are the most heavily impacted by AI visual medium scraping, it's not like the machine knows or cares to differentiate between original art and a photograph of your child.

AI visual media scrapers take everything, and that includes screengrabs, photographs, and memes. Selfies, pictures of your pets and children, pictures of your home, screengrabs of images posted to other sites -- all of the comic book imagery I've posted that I screengrabbed from digital comics, images of tweets (including the icons of peoples' faces in those tweets) and instas and screengrabs from tiktoks. I've posted x-ray images of my teeth. All of that will go into the machine.

That's why, at least I think, Midjourney wants Tumblr -- after Instagram we are potentially the most image-heavy social media site, and like Instagram we tag our content, which is metadata that the scraper can use.

So even if you aren't an artist, unless you want to Glaze every image of any kind that you post, you probably want to opt out of being scraped. I'm gonna go ahead and say we've probably already been scraped anyway, so I don't think there's a ton of point in taking down your tumblr or locking down specific images, but I mean...especially if it's stuff like pictures of children or say, a fundraising photo that involves your medical data, it maybe can't hurt.

If you do want to officially opt out, which may help if there's a class-action lawsuit later, you're going to want to go to the gear in the upper-right corner on the Tumblr desktop site, select each of your blogs from the list on the right-hand side, and scroll down to "Visibility". Select "Prevent third party sharing for [username]" to flip that bad boy on.

(If someone wants to post a link in notes to instructions for doing it on the app, I haven't updated mine so the option doesn't appear and I don't know where to find it.)

Bye-bye house I lived in for an African summer, bye-bye flowers in the garden, bye-bye branch I kept running into on the pavement…

Cat, Ghost and Monster Eyes Wish a Happy Halloween!

More & unedited pics:

DIY spooky eyes out of: TP rolls & glow sticks

Other material needed: tape to glue the ends of the rolls shut, scissors to cut in the eyes (tho one of these craft knife thingies would've been better), and string if you want to hang them up somewhere!

Is it just me or does this look very eye-of-Sauron-y? Wish I'd've seen it at night!

Meet Fran! The little guy lives behind the wardrobe and curtains of my room in Cape Town, South Africa.

As far as I can tell, he's some kind of house gecko, and does his name every honor by staying indoors. Whenever I think he's moved out, I'm sure to find him again in some corner or other. I almost squished him once when slapping against the wardrobe to kill a mosquito and he was hiding behind it! (In the last pic I was actually checking on him to see whether he's fine) So I'm more careful about that now. He's supposed to keep mosquitoes and cockroaches away, and while I haven't seen any roaches here yet, he's clearly bad at catching mosquitos, they still bite me all the time. But I still like my little roommate! He's mostly nocturnal, so when I see him during the day he isn't moving much, but he can be quite quick when I happen to turn on the lights while he was out and about at night! During the day he always hides in the upper corners somewhere, but at night he also comes down the walls. I put a shallow water bowl in the room for him because I don't know where he might get his water otherwise, I've no idea whether be makes use of it, but the offer is there!

Thanks for tagging me @bookgirlfan!

Rules: Make a new post and post the latest line in your WIP & tag as many people as there are words or as many as you feel like:

Once I had made my way through the part of the forest, and I know every area of the woods here and have names for them in Entish speech, but I will not write them here for they would be much too long to translate into a quick tongue such as the common language of the people of middle earth… Burrarum, I carried the halflings who might not be orcs through that part of the forest until I met Gandalf, and Gandalf the wizard told me: they were not little orcs.

Yeah I'm writing a Fangorn & Gandalf pov description of hobbits as part of my flufftober challenge xD it's fun - I get to write long rambling sentences where Treebeard loses track of what he's saying at least twice halfway through because he gets distracted by some other story, and that's just a mood!

Not gonna tag that many people, I don't even remember that many usernames. Let's stick to a nice even 10. @cookie-sheet-toboggan @purlturtle @squishmittenficfan @smittyjaws @xvnot15 @kla1991 @wibblywobblyida @toboldlynerd @imagitory amysnotdeadyet die-schwanenkoenigin (only if you want to of course) you can wait to do it whenever you've got a new fic started, or if you like you can just use a line of an old wip from the drafts pile, I know we've all got one xD

#yes i can tell that its 11 i cant count and I'm not about to delete a tag xD #lilo writes behind the scenes #tagging meme #lilo writes #tagged #bookgirlfan #oct'23 #22.10.23 #fanfic tag
