not sure if it’s already been posted here, but the Glaze team created a survey for artists to help identify AI art

Small reminder for any artist who can't run Glaze on their own computer: you can get invites for WebGlaze by sending a DM to Glaze on one of their social media accounts. Twitter link here => https://twitter.com/TheGlazeProject

Nightshade: Poison your work agents AI generators

This has been in the works for a while but now it's out. Some good people TheGlazeProject came up with a program that in a way will poison any image you put in it. So if someone puts your work into an AI generator it will start to act up and have unpredictable behaviors that deviate from expected norms, e.g. a prompt that asks for an image of a cow flying in space might instead get an image of a handbag floating in space.

It can be used on artwork or photos, so you can protect yours and possibly your families likeness.

If you are interested then here is the link to the site as well as more information on the program.

Opting out wont be enough (How to protect your art from Midjourney and OpenAI)

Tumblr may trust OpenAI and Midjourney to honour their end of the opt out agreement, but their past and continued violations of user consent make it clear that they can't be trusted.

I have replaced all the art I posted on Tumblr with versions I filtered through the Glaze Projects Software, and I recommend all of you reading do the same.

Both Glaze and Nightshade are on their website https://glaze.cs.uchicago.edu/

Both are important for making images difficult for AI algorithms to read. The result may leave visible artefacts on the image, but it is the only way for the protection to work in a way that cant be mitigated by copy pasting or screen grabbing an image.

Now while Glaze and Nightshade would be enough to protect an individuals art, it would require many users to do the same for GenAI companies to truly face the consequences of breaking user consent agreements. So I highly encourage not just you to do this, but to spread an re-blog this message to let as many other users as possible know to do the same. We can fight GenAI if we do it together!

Also consider following the Glaze Project on Twitter https://twitter.com/TheGlazeProject for future developments in protection against art theft.

remember yall uchicago theglazeproject is offering a web version of glaze/nightshade, webglaze! you need to message them on instagram, twitter, or through email to get an account, but it's so useful for those like me who don't have a beefy computer to run glaze. protect your art. stay safe from generative ai.

#just got mine today so i think ill be glazing all my non shitpost artwork now #kiwi’s calls #fuck ai

! IMPORTANT ! - ARTISTS & MEMESTERS PLEASE READ:

As we all know, with the advent of Generative AI, artists everywhere have been targeted in AI database scraping without consent- and with this, many creative industries are being abused by such companies. If you are an artist, art hobbyist, memester, or any type of content-creator, I urge you to try using Glaze and Nightshade on your works.

What is Glaze? "Glaze is a system designed to protect human artists by disrupting style mimicry." - Sand Lab, University of Chicago What does this mean?: It cloaks your image by adjusting inputs to pixels that are invisible to the human eye. So while the image may remain (minimally) unchanged to the human eye, generative AI will see something very different upon scraping it. It's almost like UV light, invisible to humans, but "visible" for AI. If you have more FAQs about Glaze, please read more here: https://glaze.cs.uchicago.edu/faq.html

"Oh but OliOllie, I only use tablet/phone/my pc is too old and tired for this program! I can't possibly use Glaze, it's inaccessible to the everyday internet user!"

Fortunately for you, the University of Chicago has this all figured out! Presenting WebGlaze: a wonderfully accessible way to cloak your images and join the fight against AI. Access is invite-only, but it is very easy to be invited! All you have to do is DM them on @TheGlazeProject on Xwitter or Instagram, or email them. Once you get an invite and create an account, just go to https://webglaze.cs.uchicago.edu for Glazing.

Images attached for comparison: unGlazed VS Glazed Kirby fanart by yours truly.

What is NightShade? "Nightshade works similarly as Glaze, but instead of a defense against style mimicry, it is designed as an offense tool to distort feature representations inside generative AI image models." - Sand Lab, University of Chicago What does this mean?: Much like Glaze, it cloaks your image by adjusting inputs to pixels that are invisible to the human eye. However, unlike Glaze, it doesn't just cloak your image to be hard for AI to read- it changes what AI sees entirely! An image of the Mona Lisa to you can appear as a picture of a little house on a hill for the AI, and enough poisoned images can tamper datasets to generate incorrect imagery. If you have more FAQs about NightShade, please read more here: https://nightshade.cs.uchicago.edu/whatis.html Nightshade is not yet available via WebGlaze at the time of me writing this post, but the Chicago team will be eventually making it an add-on to WebGlaze once they further study how the two methods coexist.

I remember seeing it mentioned somewhere that as little as 1000 poisoned images can corrupt AI datasets!

Ya'll better start using this! The more poisoned images there are out there, the better!

Struggling for Glaze or Nightshade to work?

If you keep getting output like this, or output where nothing changes at all:

You need to check your computers specs against what Glaze and/or Nightshade can run on. Per the official Glaze site:

Instructions on running Glaze on Windows GPU: To run Glaze on GPU, your computer must have one of the NVidia GPUs listed on this list. Please note that PyTorch ML libraries has a floating point arithmetic bug with NVidia GTX 1660/1650/1550 GPUs. If you have one of them, Glaze will likely produce all black images or something equally strange as output. The GPU must have more than 3.6G of GPU memory. You can find your GPU information following this Guide. If you have one of these compatible GPUs, please install the NVidia CUDA Toolkit from the Nvidia official website. Once installed, Glaze should run automatically on your GPU. Sorry for the hassle. The Glazing process requires significant GPU memory to run. And since we do not have the development time to build our own integrated GPU drivers, we have to rely on official NVidia drivers that you install separately.

Unlike games and other apps, Glaze does not run any sort of pre-checks to ensure that your hardware has the minimum requirements to run it. At least not currently. That means that even if you have an incompatible GPU, Glaze will still try to run -- and you may be putting unprotected works out into the world.

If you are found to have an incompatible GPU, you can request a Webglaze invite by DMing the Twitter or Instagram account of TheGlazeProject. They are very behind on answering messages, so please be patient with your DMs. But you need to use the invite code right away when you get it!

Best of luck everyone!

Hi everyone! It's been a minute. Just now I've deleted all my art, since we're all most likely on the former bird app it's hopefully obvious why.

No worries though! I've gotten access to Webglaze so once I've got everything (over 100 pieces) glazed I plan on re-uploading everything!

In addition to about 50 new pieces, so look forward to them!

And if your a fellow artist no matter how small PLEASE check out @TheGlazeProject on the bird app, don't let people who don't understand creativity take advantage of you!

guys. dm @.theglazeproject on twitter or instagram for an invite to webglaze, Cara glaze is temporarily down because people kept abusing the system by making multiple accounts to evede the daily limit

[daez3ro]

BTW to those with art posted here, they are looking to and will most likely sell rights to your works to Midjorney or OpenAI.

Upload your portfolio to cara.app

Check out @TheGlazeProject on Twitter; dm them for an account. Get your works covered with Nightshade (when it's widely available) and Glaze.

Hey! I haven’t been posting much of my personal work lately and I’m still unsure how to get back to posting in the open.

I have internal and external reasons for that. Internal I will keep to myself today, but the external will be addressed:

Until artificial neural-network assisted intellectual property theft would not get a proper wide public, political and judicial solution, I feel like my security is only in my hands.

Therefore, from now on I will use

TheGlazeProject (https://glaze.cs.uchicago.edu/)

glaze for my public posts.

From now on all or most of my images will have special patterns that will protect them from being used in unauthorized datasets.

I'm thinking about making them available somewhere without those patterns, but I will get back to you on that some other day.

So, today I learned that WebGlaze is a thing!! and immediately made a fool of myself by jumping the gun and messaging the Twitter account about getting an invite code before looking hard enough to see that the requirements were already readily available on their site, so I'm passing this information along to anyone who may need it!

please use Instagram or twitter to send a DM to request webglaze account (@TheGlazeProject on both). Ideally, use whichever has more of your art already posted in the feed.

My first mistake: I technically have a Twitter account, but I do not post my art on there because I do not trust Twitter.

If the account you're sending the request from has nothing linking it to your art online, it would be helpful if you post something visible on the art account that points to your request (or the account you're sending it from).

My second mistake: I do have my carrd linked in my Twitter profile and that does link back here to my Tumblr, but even with my tag directory it would be a nuisance to ask someone to intuit how to find my art tag. Or to poke around aimlessly for the link to my deviantart account, which hasn't been used in years.

Hopefully, I've read through the information thoroughly enough to make up for the inconvenience though! ><

Note: There is some picrew and dollmaker stuff in my art tag and some bad MS Paint edits, but the majority is the multimedia art I've been creating by hand since childhood.

#random thought #Cloe tries to art #I'm sticking this post in that tag so when I send the link it will appear at the top #hopefully as proof that I am the same fool in their DMs //bricked
