Artists should probably get their heads out of their a$$es and organize to sell their work as training packs for AI. Otherwise they will just get abused. You wont stop AI making art, it costs, esp game devs, too much money to have YOU do it, so obv they will use AI. So instead of losing out on a career you good at, adapt, organize and make orgs that hold artists work for licensing to train AI models. There used to be a lot of stable masters and farriers before ICE. They all got their jobs deleted inside of a decade. And we made it out just fine. Society will not be slowing down progress so that artists can keep working directly as artists. You all just train AI now. And thank gawd for that. You and the coders were making games cost way too much money to be viable.
@@direccioncinco-h7z AI companies don't buy training data. Not from the data's *owners* anyway. They scrape it or hire a data broker to do it for them.
Generative AI art isn't theft, that's a major cope. I'm a broke fuck who can't afford commissions, so I use AI for shit. I'm not sorry about that. It's like piracy: You'd never pay for the product to begin with, so the company who made the software/movie/game isn't losing revenue.
@@JaxonElzinga yes, because preservation of lost media/not wanting to deal with greedy companies while still enjoying the real work creatives put into games and making a crude amalgamation of stolen artwork from mostly small artists is exactly the same thing.
I even saw (in Japanese) a post saying claiming that after you “signed off your rights” by TOS, if you use nightshade and break some billionaires AI model we are legally punishable for destroying their property. Lol That’s equivalent of “I’ve made an insecticide laced cake due to repeated break ins, thief would took my valuables plus food…. Then when that same criminal breaks in and steals the cake that’s written “do not steal” on the container along with other stuff again, that I’m liable for his hospitalization?”
Journalist: "Did you encounter any poisoned data samples?" OpenAI: "No comment." Journalist: "So what's your opinion on the tools that poison potential data samples?" OpenAI: "They're abusive to our operations." Okay, so the answer to that first question was "Yes." Got it.
@@okaydetar821 then someone will say that they are finding ways around it, then Nightshade and Glaze will adapt to continue to poison the dataset. Fighting ai with ai is a stalemate that benefits artist and people working on things similar to Nightshade and Glaze. Generative ai gets more advanced so does Nightshade.
It's abusive to force them to invest in countermeasures like tools that detect poisoned work lol. The Nightshade pages say Models can't be trusted to comply with opt-out/in lists out of the goodness of their heart so they're making it so that non-compliance with permission avenues carries risk. If stuff like Nightshade becomes prevalent then actual consent and licensing starts to look more appealing.
Not really accurate. It's not abusive to them, as their data brokers have easy ways to scrub such images. It's more abusive to the actual artists, because it damages their images worse than JPG compression, for literally no real benefit. Models have already been trained entirely on poisoned images, and yet still generate things fine.
Artists: Can we have opt in model? Ai bros: No, we can take whatever we want. Cope and seethe. Artists: Okay, I'm protecting my data. Ai bros: Noooo you have to let us steal your art 😭
@@berendharmsen Just because it annoys me, opt is *not* short for optional. It's a different word meaning 'to choose an option'. So 'opt in' means you have to choose the option of being part of a program, whereas 'opt out' means you have to choose the option of *not* being part of it.
@@TriangleChloros You are literally agreeing with me. All these words come from the same root. My quick reply perfectly explained what the person who asked the question needed to know. Nothing you contributed would have made it any clearer.
Lol I love how the article is like. creatives are losing the AI battle, Marvel used AI in Secret Wars... OK but Secret Wats BOMBED. LOL So many companies that have fired and replaced their artists with AI are being laughed at and it is painfully obvious they are using AI which devalues their entire brand.
I think that bit of the article is more making the point that artists are already losing out on jobs. It might be funny that companies using AI are being laughed at, but that's still a potential job that no artists got to be paid for. Whether it's gonna be the same case long term or not, in the short term is already causing damage.
The show did not bomb because of its opening sequence. The show bombed because it wasn’t a good show. What you are saying is that if the title sequence was made by real artists, the same show wouldn’t bomb. And yet we have countless shows that have flopped even with human made title sequences. Now this doesn’t mean that AI art isn’t a red flag for overall quality of the show. AI generated art could be sign of cutting corners but that’s not always going to be the case either. As an example, good show can still have a mandate from the execs to use AI art opening titles regardless of what the creatives want and the creatives just don’t push back and make a compromise. Or another example where the writer turns into an AI bro and wants to create an AI title sequence for their own show. Yet another example would be where Open AI pays a good show a handsome sum of money to switch to AI generated titles. But those shows could still otherwise be very good, and be very well received by the public. .. despite a shitty AI art opening title. Not to mention that if AI becomes a staple in mainstream media and culture.. laughing at it would be a thing of the past and that would just become the new normal. So I’d be very careful here and not rely on the public thinking AI Art means bad quality. You and I know that AI spits out illogical bullshit that needs to be heavily corrected and you can never get it to give you exactly what you want but the public generally doesn’t care if it’s “good enough” at a glance. Most people.. unfortunately.. could not care less about an injustice that isn’t happening to them (which isn’t a good thing but speaks to the self serving nature of human beings).
For emerging brand new gen ai models, ns and glaze are lethal in terms of datasets. The other folks must be the ones using pre trained models or those with img2img methods. So please spread the night shade stuff wherever you go( glaze is ok too via web glaze, as long as what we post is poisoned)
What I had heard was the issue was that it requires a certain amount of processing power or something from your computer and takes a while to apply to your art, and that not every artist had that hardware and time available to do that. But I've never tried glaze or nightshade as I just don't post my art anymore since I was never doing it for money anyway, so I can't speak from experience
Yesterday I tried chat gpt's image generation, and not only does it get text perfectly right now, it also generated a SIGNATURE/WATERMARK. We NEED glaze, nightshade, or other tools like them because we are running out of ways to protect ourselves and our jobs, and if the ai bros start whining about it, then LET THEM CRY.
imagine having shit ai generated images not only steal copyrighted material but also put *their own watermark* on it Someone just sue OpenAi and set a precedent so this thievery stops quickly
@@temperstar8411 actually... ai generated images shouldnt exist in first place but they already do.... now, ai putting any kind of watermark on it is another level of low, doesnt matter if its the ai's watermark or the plagied artist's watermark
Artists: "Ok, It's not working out, I'm gonna need my art back." AI userbase: "Please, this is all I have. I'm nothing without AI." Artists: "If you're nothing without AI, then you shouldn't have it."
True. I absolutely hate it if someone defended AI """artist""" because they aren't 'as talented' or they can't stand studying to better their art. Talent is bullshit, and if you don't put the amount of work and sacrifice others have put to get to where they are right now, then you are unfit to be called an 'artist'.
They think their little sob story will work out lmao. You think I give a fuck that you can't ever draw a single eye? or even CARE to LEARN how to?, boo fucking hoo. Art isn't you place then
@@DiceTwenty I think that's really egotistical. If someone can make a piece that resonates with those that see it, the amount of work and sacrifice is irrelevant. Art isn't about the artist, it's about the emotion, feeling, connection etc that the piece evokes from those that see it.
@@smithynoir9980An AI can't create a piece that resonates with others. Not yet at least. For a piece to induce something in others, the artist needs to understand how humans work and what can induce those emotions. An AI doesn't understand humans, and the most it can do is take a work someone else made and copy that without any intent.
Talent is real, but so is improvement. Coming from someone who has “talent” it is not able to carry. Their argument is the same as getting robot implants because they aren’t in good shape and want to lie that they are as strong as athletes in sports because of robot limbs they didn’t need when they could’ve trained, but that argument has MORE merit than in this situation.
“Why did you add more locks to your door? It’s preventing me from stealing things that don’t belong to me! You know I’m too much of a talentless waste of space to do anything myself!”
that comparison does a disservice to thieves. Breaking into a house, stealing valuable items, and getting out requires some skill, and the people who do it are usually victims of a maligned system who have no other choice.
@@aimfulRenegade I mean fair I guess because they have to have SOME talent to do it these people have none so they have a robot mass sweep the internet to make fake art for them which requires zero effort on their end but to turn on a machine made by someone else so they can sell fraudulent work. 😁
@@aimfulRenegadebros defending thieves as if them stealing all the valuables in someones home isn’t going to then put them in the same situation as that thief
We really need to stop calling them artists or their work art. It's not, it's an image generator. They aren't artists, they generate images based off prompts.
The entitlement is off the charts with these companies. "But artists are sabotaging our tools-" Tough. It's their own creations. They can do whatever they want with it. If a tech company wants a non-glazed version, they can pay the artist for it.
Typically, those who scream the loudest about “Capitalism, git gud scrub” have found themselves in a highly advantageous position entirely by luck and are terrified that it is already time to abdicate that throne.
They're stealing people's firewood and putting it in their woodchippers and getting mad people are putting nails in the wood to break their woodchipper.
Yeah, I'm not an artist, but after learning about what Nightshade does, I'll be adding it onto every image I upload anywhere. If nothing else, I am entertained imagining how the image could be "seen" by these algorithms. 😈👻
It might be another tool in protecting identity and privacy as well, if you do upload a picture of yourself, include this so a AI has a much harder time making a deep fake or a face recognition of you, is that possible?
It's more like you telling someone to stop filming your house from their house across the street, and then you get so upset you put up blinds. And then them getting upset that you've put up blinds and calling it abuse. They get to film what's visible, you get to put up blinds.
Not just 'ask' pay them. The problem is that they STEAL. I think many people would be ok their work is used if they are decently paid or even paid at all. I assume they 'asked for consent', they just don't take No for an answer
As a programmer, or if the governments would ban it because it should be banned. It is obviously copyright abuse. It is bad for the environment and for artists and adds... Easier fake news? Ban it.
The more that they seem to be afraid of Glaze/Nightshade, the more that we should use it. It just means that it really does work, and we will be able to protect our art. In fact, it makes me want to draw even more now, just so I can spread more poisoned art out there for the AI to suffer from.
It's getting less effective as some models are learning to get around it, that said, use it. Use it and similar every time, the counter tools will continue to develop as well.
@@smithynoir9980 the thing is this is a adblocker vs website type relationship. Sure the website may try to break the adblocker but there are so much more artists then there are art scrapers, and theyll constantly change the formula and keep posioning the well which the AI draws off
2:30 - This is the same argument you would generally have with anticheat and hacks. It's a *constant* cat and mouse game. 5:30 - Consent is a large part of why people are so against AI. There was no consent to train our data, and it's a privacy and ownership violation as a result that there was no reasonable "hey can we do this" - It was scraped without any concern or thought for the current copyright law (DMCA, Copyright acts). 7:30 - Literally admitted a crime and they still haven't shut themselves down. smh
They never needed consent to train with your data. They aren't TAKING your data. They're analyzing PATTERNS across a wide range of PUBLICLY AVAILABLE data, and their work is to determine the patterns. The patterns they've discovered are their own unique work. Just how like you "stole" the art of everyone YOU looked at when learning to draw.
@@williambarnes5023are you defending ai? They’re blatantly and shamelessly copy and pasting your work into their ai engine for their own personal use. Sure, it’s not stealing. Because why would taking something to use for their own purposes and pass off as their own be “stealing.”
@@williambarnes5023 also, there’s a difference between learning from other people and STEALING THEIR ART. Why do you think artists add watermarks? AI’s not going to dodge those. Just because something is posted on the Internet doesn’t make it yours. Go cry me a river.
@@CheeseThePurpleDragon I'm not interested in defending your strawman. Yes, I'm defending AI. No, they're not copying and pasting your work. That's not how AI training works. I also fully support Nightshade. You're not making any allies by dropping into delusional hysteria over AI.
Tapeworms have evolved over millenia to adapt to the human body, also evolved enough to not actually kill their hosts, as they need to reproduce and can't do that if their host dies off. Apologize to tape worms, you are slandering their (awful) name by comparing them with these absolute wastes of oxygen
They shouldn’t really need to hate us. We’re just trying to defend ourselves. It’s our natural response to something that we are so passionate about, and hold so dearly. After all, that’s what THEY do when we try to explain to them why AI threatens the creative concepts of artists. They are the ones who always want to belittle artists as a support to their views and arguments. It’s them who for some reason, are always so childish and lack consideration and empathy. Because actual artists and other level-headed people have recognised that it’s not entirely wrong to use AI…As a really minor tool. We don’t want it to actually overtake and completely erase creative art. We still want to create things with our own ideas, Mind and hands. But the reality is, we are still human. There are days where we are stuck on an art block. But all we need is a little vision or inspiration, and it helps us be set. Can you imagine how scary the idea that people like this think this is ‘abuse’? I bet the moment that of you give these people some kind of big power, they will gleefully try to take control and oppress others around them. Usually, the true Abusers would always blame the victim for everything, every time.
They don't hate you, it's a grift. They don't care beyond the money they can generate. These people don't believe in anything except for the Almighty Dollar.
Glaze and Nightshade as well as AI now cannibalizing it's own AI pieces is all of course biting them in the ass. Artists deserve the right to keep their pieces. AI companies should be paying for all the stolen art and until they do then fucking with them should never end.
So they are now openly admitting to using images they have absolutely no rights to for their algorithms? Smells like copyright infringement to me bois, can we give them another lawsuit real quick?
They weren't really hiding it that well in the first place. The mask slipped and nobody can sue them because even though they are legally in the wrong, they can just drown you in debt and long legal proceedings before you even get to the court and even then the lawyers they have sold their souls for that money so it's an uphill battle.
@@SherrifOfNottinghammost crap on youtube claiming fair use is actually derivative works and illegal. Fair use is a small amount of the actual work for educational purposes, essays, quotes in books etc.
I think I’m gonna start using nightshade now. This little slip up was all I needed to hear. No company is ever going to admit that these softwares work because then everyone would use them. But they just accidentally revealed that they hate it so much that they’d consider it abuse, which means it’s absolutely working. The artist revolution is at hand!!!
From what I read they were stating that such tools, if they actually worked, would be abuse, in the legal sense. As in they'd have the ability to actually go after creator of it since it would be classified as malware... if it worked.
@@arcadeinvader8086 What I see is that people seem to don't like explanations of what is and isn't malware because they want to use malware and be justified for it. I'm simply pointing out that the company is trying to frame using these tools as malware, and pointing out that they actually have a case for it, if the tools actually worked (they don't). But yes, tell me how I don't fundamentally understand how malware is a piece of software used to maliciously effect somebody else's device. Nighshade and Glaze are software used to maliciously effect the training of their AI, easily classified as malware. What YOU don't seem to understand is that I'm pointing out what THEY want to do, but you're being a prick about hearing accurate information because you don't like the information. It's a small wonder I spend any time trying to help artists understand what they're up against, they don't want to learn.
I think there have actually been robbers who sued house owners for using security services. Sometimes the robber will trip or something in the house they are robbing and will sue the house owners lol. I think they even win sometimes idk 🤷🏼♀️

@@SWIFT_NINJA47they mean that you can copy/paste or download any online image and act like its your own. Doesn’t help that most online artists never actually sign their works either. And the fact that everything you post online automatically is at the mercy of and is automatically owned by the company whose site it is.
@@UltimatePerfection You should really read up on copyright laws. Copyright exists from the moment you draw the first stroke or write the first word. Just because it is on the internet doesn't mean it's immediately in the public domain.
Nightshade was developed as a form of copyright protection. It’s hard to detect through almost any means and even if it was easy to identify it serves as a marker that says “do not use to train AI” which is ultimately, the goal that is trying to be achieved. So yeah. People should continue to poison their images with glaze and nightshade if they want to protect their intellectual property and I support them in doing so.
Open AI has been taking everyone else's food from the break room fridge and now they're upset that someone put peanuts in their food "even though everyone knows I have a peanut allergy!" _If_ the peanuts were directly given to them, _if_ the creative works on which the model is trained were intentionally, actively submitted to Open AI, _then_ would they have a case.
More like Open AI went into a restaurant, stole the food some hard-working chefs made without paying, ate it, and after doing this often enough the chefs put peanuts in their food. Open AI ate the food, and said the _chefs_ should be arrested.
HAH I think you misunderstand an important factor about automation, the fact that a LOT of people have lost their job to automation and watched as artists smugly sat on their platform using it to tell people to become artists, "they'll never take our jobs" It's why artists are outnumbered on this issue, you can't be a prick to everybody around you all your life and expect that many people to side with you when lady karma shows up
@@SherrifOfNottingham then sit and watch as all our culture becomes regurgitated trash produced by machines with no intentionality or human soul. Yes, be in favor of AI out of some petty sense of vindication. Go ahead.
@@infurnessfire4452 there are far few artists that care about automation taking jobs. There are very few artists that actually care about automation as a whole... that's why they're so focused on banning AI and preventing automation specifically in their sector. If you truly care bout automation as a whole you'll stop fighting AI as the problem, and start actually solving the problem... for everybody.
News flash: "Nobody cares." As in, artists don't care what AI techbros have to say when we've _already_ declared a war against them. Longer post version: Let's at least acknowledge the CEO is _technically_ correct in making that statement. But it also reflects the reckless, indiscriminate method by which they've trained their models -- artists wouldn't be complaining (as much) about the potential for style theft/impersonation if the companies spent time _actually curating_ what the model "learns" from the datasets.
Hate to drop this but it's a bad example, you can get sued and lose (in USA) if they can prove you knew about the allergu and did that on purpose, same shit as boobytrapping your own house.
Keep on fighting, artists. We can actually win this. A.I. "adapting" to these tools won't happen on its own, and is actually insanely hard to implement. Open A.I. might be able to adapt their algorithms thanks to their billions, but it will be insanely costly for them. At worst, it will "only" wound them pretty bad, which is already a win for us. And considering they aren't really profitable to begin with... that wound might actually be lethal. Only investors and business angels granting them billions are carrying them so far. chatGPT would be losing money without them, just as Dall-E would. A.I. is much more vulnerable than many people think : if it doesn't make enough money, it simply won't be able to continue in its current form. And its ability to scrape the whole Internet for content might just disappear if there is no money to pay for those gigantic data centers.
You're definitely on the money here. The current generation of AI is hitting the limits of what its capable of without being fundamentally reworked. Glaze and Nightshade are just exposing the limitations.
If they can't use art anymore, they'd have to rely on using even more of AI images to feed the machine, and it's only gonna inbreed it til it's unusable
AI is still pretty useful, its just the way its being used is scummy. For example, using the ai for fun, like generating silly images. You can also use it to help with coding if you dont have the time to learn a specific command.
Ai training on my work without my consent is not ok. I dont hate ai, but hate the people using the ai to steal from those without consent given. I also hate the dumb ai drive thrus. Those need to go away. Why would I want to spend 10x longer ordering.
No, but my slop machine! Can't you see? My poor, poor slop machine! it will starve, STARVE, I say, if I am not allowed to keep stealing your art and using it without your consent! How will it continue producing its soulless slop now? Stop ABUSING me!!! What do you want me to do, ASK for the art? Provide some form of COMPENSATION for the use of copyrighted works that do not belong to me?! Or, dare I even say it, CREDIT?! What madness! No, my vast output of worthless slop that's ruining digital art in general with each passing second would be SOMEWHAT INCONVENIENCED if I had to do that, you evil, greedy, monstrous artist! In fact, YOU should be paying ME for the PRIVILEGE of having your art fed into my slop machine and turned into slop!
There's an incredibly useful big AI blocklist that you can use with uBlock origin, it cuts out a large percentage of the slop and you can add to it if you notice a site it's missed. But yeah, you can kiss google images goodbye on mobile. It's genuinely useless.
This is probably more on the illegal side but I wonder if AI dataset poisoning could be used to distribute malware or cause significant damage to the LLM itself. Those kinds of things alone would cause a significant decrease in the usage of LLMs for a long while if it can be tricked into harming users like that.
Firstly, no. Secondly, LLMs and even image gen are not inherently evil technology to completely shut them down, this is just the same situation as: Nuclear energy. Blockchain. NFTs. Where one big thing screws up the public perception of the technology for decades to go. Fuck big companies.
That would be massively illegal, you have to remember, LLMs and their associated image generators are well within the law doing what they're doing. Distributing malware is a crime, and even if they were breaking the law, you're not allowed to break the law in retaliation.
AI companies being "abused" would suggest there is a relationship between the artists and these tech giants, but all those bridges have already been burned down when the corporations didn't even sit down at the negotiating table. AI has existed for less than four years and I'm already so exhausted of it, it's actually crazy how boring and stale the concept science fiction writers had fantasized about has become.
@blu6295 They'd argue prompting is art because some creativity is required to create a prompt, I've literally argued with some dipshit over thins on yt. The thing is, if prompting was really art the AI generated picture wouldn't really be relevant would it? They'd be sharing their prompts online instead lol
4:07 THIS! LITERALLY THIS! THAT'S WHAT I'VE BEEN SAYING! Either hire/commission someone to make art for the ai, pay artists for the proper licensing to use their art for ai, or get permission from artists to use their art for ai. There, 3 paid options and 1 free option (though far more limited). But of course, that's too much money, time, and effort and they want to blow up their companies NOW, not later. Screw ethics and sustainability, all that matters is limitless human greed.
Ah yes, the AI ethics saga continues: OpenAI: 'Stop protecting your own work so we can use it for AI training without your permission to profit!' Artists: 'How about no?' *activates Nightshade and Glaze* OpenAI: *Surprised Pikachu face* 'That's abuse!' OpenAI is like that kid who yells 'pause' just before you tag them in a game. They complain when artists defend their rights while simultaneously attacking them. It's a classic case of the bully crying foul when the tables turn. OpenAI, the champion of 'ask for forgiveness, not permission' until someone says 'no.' It’s like watching a toddler throw a tantrum because you won’t let them eat your entire birthday cake. 'But I wanted it!' Yeah, and I wanted my art to remain mine-funny how that works. Next up: OpenAI introduces their groundbreaking 'Do As I Say, Not As I Do' AI ethics module. Because nothing says 'advancing beneficial AI' quite like digital colonialism with a side of gaslighting. Openai's eerie parallels to authoritarian playbooks: 1. Suppressing dissent by calling self-defense 'abuse' 2. Exploiting resources (aka artists' work) without consent 3. Centralizing power faster than a dictator on caffeine 4. Gaslighting artists so hard they’re considering a career in competitive cheese rolling 5. Accidentally embodying the very capitalist exploitation Marx warned us about... Or maybe it isnt an accident. ClosedAI: "Bringing you tomorrow's dystopia, today!" *Kinda eerily fits them* Also not to mention sam altmans worldcoin surveillance thing... Screams 1984 and brave new world. Its almost like the for profit ClosedAi wants to be skynet. Arguments against OpenAI's claim that it's "impossible" to train AI without copyrighted material include: Alternative Training Methods: Companies like Adobe demonstrate that AI can be trained using non-copyrighted content, suggesting that OpenAI's reliance on copyrighted material is more about convenience and cost than necessity. Cost-Effectiveness: Critics argue that OpenAI prefers using copyrighted materials because it's cheaper than licensing or creating original content, indicating a profit-driven motive rather than an insurmountable barrier. Transformative Use Defense: While OpenAI claims its use of copyrighted content falls under "fair use," many believe this argument weakens when the end product is commercialized, challenging the notion that training AI constitutes transformative use. Overall, critics assert that OpenAI's position is an excuse to avoid the financial implications of proper licensing. OpenAI's exploration into generating ethical porn raises concerns about its profit motives and ethical implications. Critics argue that this shift indicates a prioritization of revenue over ethical standards, as the company seeks to capitalize on a lucrative market while navigating public backlash. Profit Incentive: By considering NSFW content, OpenAI may be aiming to tap into a profitable sector, potentially prioritizing financial gains over user safety and ethical considerations. Excuses for Cost-Cutting: The claim that it's exploring responsible content generation may serve as a convenient excuse to avoid investing in comprehensive content moderation and licensing strategies, which could be more costly than simply allowing user-generated explicit content. Risk of Exploitation: Allowing AI-generated erotic content could exacerbate existing issues with non-consensual material and exploitation, suggesting that OpenAI is neglecting the broader societal impacts in favor of commercial interests (as usual) Even though i already said it, here it is again: ClosedAI: "Bringing you tomorrow's dystopia, today!"
Problem: stuff from the last 95 years that wasn't made by the federal government or another AI will be completely unavailable to AI. It should be obvious that this is a very bad training data set.
@@bootmii98i love how that can be tied back to Disney's Mickey Mouse laws, lol. They're the reason copyright lasts for 100 years.

"Paying artists would make this business unprofitable" Well, then maybe this business has no place on the market, pals. Do something else. Stealing is not a fan option. I'd ask what is wrong with people, but I'm a sociologist...
Everyone is a creative. Whether they want to hear it or not. Their laziness does not move me. I started with stick figures. AI is and will always be about AVOIDING. Avoiding learning. Avoiding doing. Avoiding failing. Their insecurities are not my problem. I encourage everyone , but no one can get through your own insecurities but yourself. So they flounder. The answer is to get up and WORK. Instead they throw a tantrum! Literally Skill issue
I have visual aphantasia and am a raging perfectionist, so drawing is hugely frustrating to me. So I.... comissioned an artist to draw a picture of my DnD character. Yeah, it's not cheap, but paying someone for their time and creativity shouldn't be cheap.

I hope every artist begins to use night shade and glaze so we can just fuck up ai, and once it learns how to bypass them find something else to ruin it. If we all try hard enough, we can defend our artwork, fuck ai
It feels like AI companies are purposely ignoring the damage they've done to the art landscape in general, pretending that their products do not harm artists in any way and that they're purely benevolent entities just trying to advance technology into a new age... But we've seen that damage, we've felt it, and it can't be ignored. The plagiarism, the theft it enables, the artists and graphic designers out of a job because of AI, even the environmental damage caused by the copious use of energy required to power these stupid machines. It's all here, clear to see, and these companies and their defenders choose to ignore it all.
We just need to make it illegal to use ai. Look at human cloning. We are fully capable of creating that sice the 1990s. But it is considered illegal and fines are so high the juice ain't worth the squeeze.
I don't think AI, I think strictly generative AI. (Unless you did mean that, sorry) Because technically AI is used in other helpful and significant things we use in technology. But we seriously need some law crack-down on Gen AI. There's too much danger with that... Especially how gullible people are and how quick misinformation spreads.
i don't want to erm actually because i am an artist (actual artist) myself and the heavy use of ai does directly affect me as well but i think we should simply regulate it for the general public. ai does serve a lot of purpose in the medical field for example, and in places where having a human work would be dangerous/unintuitive. but generative ai? fuck that shit bro. ban it for humans. ai shouldn't be used as a replacement for our creativity
@@gonpachi_0303 Agreed. From what I can tell the most ai does in the medical field is tally all of the symptoms and side effects folks have. It is very simple so I wouldn't even consider it an ai or llm. We should still use it but it can be tallied by humans easily even though I think ai is good in that case. However I disagree about having it replace dangerous work. Not every wants to or can be an artist or a computer guy. We should just increase the hazard pay a lot for the dangerous jobs. Plus a bunch of folks find joy from doing it, so I won't judge.
I hope artists keep doing this. I consider it an essential skill. And companies "hating it" is essentially a self admission that they are stealing your content without attribution.
This situation hopefully motivates people to make more programs like Nightshade and Glaze. Eventually the AI will be able to get around them, we need to have the backups ready.
Same - I'm wondering if low level irregular noise could achieve some similar effect? Even if it doesn't work I might do it anyways since many of my songs involve recorded rain or waves as ambience
Strangely that seems to have been taken care of by the recording industry itself to some degree. The AIs (so far) have been trained on so many A443 machine-tuned recordings that it requires effort to get them to produce a sound/voice that isn't. Software tuning is the glaze of the audio world, even if it wasn't meant to be. There isn't any nightshade equivalent yet afaik, though software could probably be written to introduce microsecond pops and other noise that the machines would "hear" but speakers couldn't produce.
i wish there were this kind of tools like nightsade but for ai voices. Greedy companies trying to replace voice actors with AI, we are losing too much.
I was going to scrape adobe’s bank account providing myself with millions of dollars but they disrupted the process and I have zero of their dollars that I decided I’m entitled to! This type of abuse must not be allowed to continue
Hmm, I can see where you're coming from, but I don't think this metaphor works as well as others. The bank and billionaires are the ones who extract (capitalize) off of the common person, and tasers are often used on people who have not committed a crime, do not present a clear and present danger, and/or should have had a trained crisis worker or EMT intervene instead. I chat with a big group of artists, writers, and other creatives daily-- in the U.S. and elsewhere--and I know all of us would be uncomfortable being compared to the p*lice.
they don't ask for forgiveness either, just act entitled to plunder and steal the work of millions of actual people who put countless hours and serious effort into it to train their stupid algorithms
Yeah, they've always worked to some degree. These tools and those like them, even if not super effective, are a hitch and the tool can only develop further if more people are using them. Even if it seems at times to be getting less effective or whatever, keep using it.
It’s beside the point, but German opposition to Americans using shotguns in combat was due to it being “dehumanizing”. Shotguns were and are hunting weapons, the thing you shoot deer with. Compared to a “respectable” death by rifle or pistol shot, being killed as a shotgun was seen as equating the target with animals. Yes, this was in the same war that saw industrial-scale use of chemical weapons and flamethrowers. No, that is not the argument the Americans used to get the Germans to shut up about it.
With an actual incoming, violent authoritarian regime in the U.S. in 2025, I'm even more uncomfortable with potentially demonizing an entire European nation for what wartime negotiations were discussed with Allied forces 80-plus years ago.
Imo ai bros should be fined the same as intellectual theft, copyright, theft, etc. Not imprisoned, not discouraged, but fined, because if you know what their drive is, that's most effective. They want money. Make ai a way to lose, not gain, that money they want.

Artists should probably get their heads out of their a$$es and organize to sell their work as training packs for AI. Otherwise they will just get abused. You wont stop AI making art, it costs, esp game devs, too much money to have YOU do it, so obv they will use AI. So instead of losing out on a career you good at, adapt, organize and make orgs that hold artists work for licensing to train AI models.
There used to be a lot of stable masters and farriers before ICE. They all got their jobs deleted inside of a decade. And we made it out just fine.

It's abusive to force them to invest in countermeasures like tools that detect poisoned work lol. The Nightshade pages say Models can't be trusted to comply with opt-out/in lists out of the goodness of their heart so they're making it so that non-compliance with permission avenues carries risk. If stuff like Nightshade becomes prevalent then actual consent and licensing starts to look more appealing.
Not really accurate. It's not abusive to them, as their data brokers have easy ways to scrub such images.

Lol I love how the article is like. creatives are losing the AI battle, Marvel used AI in Secret Wars... OK but Secret Wats BOMBED. LOL So many companies that have fired and replaced their artists with AI are being laughed at and it is painfully obvious they are using AI which devalues their entire brand.
I think that bit of the article is more making the point that artists are already losing out on jobs. It might be funny that companies using AI are being laughed at, but that's still a potential job that no artists got to be paid for. Whether it's gonna be the same case long term or not, in the short term is already causing damage.
The show did not bomb because of its opening sequence. The show bombed because it wasn’t a good show. What you are saying is that if the title sequence was made by real artists, the same show wouldn’t bomb. And yet we have countless shows that have flopped even with human made title sequences. Now this doesn’t mean that AI art isn’t a red flag for overall quality of the show. AI generated art could be sign of cutting corners but that’s not always going to be the case either. As an example, good show can still have a mandate from the execs to use AI art opening titles regardless of what the creatives want and the creatives just don’t push back and make a compromise. Or another example where the writer turns into an AI bro and wants to create an AI title sequence for their own show. Yet another example would be where Open AI pays a good show a handsome sum of money to switch to AI generated titles. But those shows could still otherwise be very good, and be very well received by the public. .. despite a shitty AI art opening title. Not to mention that if AI becomes a staple in mainstream media and culture.. laughing at it would be a thing of the past and that would just become the new normal. So I’d be very careful here and not rely on the public thinking AI Art means bad quality. You and I know that AI spits out illogical bullshit that needs to be heavily corrected and you can never get it to give you exactly what you want but the public generally doesn’t care if it’s “good enough” at a glance. Most people.. unfortunately.. could not care less about an injustice that isn’t happening to them (which isn’t a good thing but speaks to the self serving nature of human beings).

@@smithynoir9980An AI can't create a piece that resonates with others. Not yet at least. For a piece to induce something in others, the artist needs to understand how humans work and what can induce those emotions.

Talent is real, but so is improvement. Coming from someone who has “talent” it is not able to carry. Their argument is the same as getting robot implants because they aren’t in good shape and want to lie that they are as strong as athletes in sports because of robot limbs they didn’t need when they could’ve trained, but that argument has MORE merit than in this situation.

I think there have actually been robbers who sued house owners for using security services. Sometimes the robber will trip or something in the house they are robbing and will sue the house owners lol. I think they even win sometimes idk 🤷🏼♀️
It's more like you telling someone to stop filming your house from their house across the street, and then you get so upset you put up blinds.
And then them getting upset that you've put up blinds and calling it abuse. They get to film what's visible, you get to put up blinds.
"It's abuse for you to do what you want to your own art."

@@UltimatePerfectionuh what????
@@UltimatePerfectionSo? You can put glaze / nightshade on your art if you want.
Right like, I OWN it I do what I want!
@@SWIFT_NINJA47they mean that you can copy/paste or download any online image and act like its your own. Doesn’t help that most online artists never actually sign their works either. And the fact that everything you post online automatically is at the mercy of and is automatically owned by the company whose site it is.
@@UltimatePerfection You should really read up on copyright laws.
Copyright exists from the moment you draw the first stroke or write the first word. Just because it is on the internet doesn't mean it's immediately in the public domain.
This is like a thug calling it abuse for people to sell pepper spray to potential victims.
Nightshade was developed as a form of copyright protection. It’s hard to detect through almost any means and even if it was easy to identify it serves as a marker that says “do not use to train AI” which is ultimately, the goal that is trying to be achieved.
So yeah. People should continue to poison their images with glaze and nightshade if they want to protect their intellectual property and I support them in doing so.
Which is great in principle, if the tools worked.
Open AI has been taking everyone else's food from the break room fridge and now they're upset that someone put peanuts in their food "even though everyone knows I have a peanut allergy!"
_If_ the peanuts were directly given to them, _if_ the creative works on which the model is trained were intentionally, actively submitted to Open AI, _then_ would they have a case.
More like Open AI went into a restaurant, stole the food some hard-working chefs made without paying, ate it, and after doing this often enough the chefs put peanuts in their food. Open AI ate the food, and said the _chefs_ should be arrested.
@Someperson12532 that's the same analogy

Longer post version:
Let's at least acknowledge the CEO is _technically_ correct in making that statement. But it also reflects the reckless, indiscriminate method by which they've trained their models -- artists wouldn't be complaining (as much) about the potential for style theft/impersonation if the companies spent time _actually curating_ what the model "learns" from the datasets.
Stealing is also abuse.

Keep on fighting, artists. We can actually win this.
A.I. "adapting" to these tools won't happen on its own, and is actually insanely hard to implement. Open A.I. might be able to adapt their algorithms thanks to their billions, but it will be insanely costly for them. At worst, it will "only" wound them pretty bad, which is already a win for us. And considering they aren't really profitable to begin with... that wound might actually be lethal.
Only investors and business angels granting them billions are carrying them so far. chatGPT would be losing money without them, just as Dall-E would. A.I. is much more vulnerable than many people think : if it doesn't make enough money, it simply won't be able to continue in its current form. And its ability to scrape the whole Internet for content might just disappear if there is no money to pay for those gigantic data centers.
You're definitely on the money here. The current generation of AI is hitting the limits of what its capable of without being fundamentally reworked. Glaze and Nightshade are just exposing the limitations.
If they can't use art anymore, they'd have to rely on using even more of AI images to feed the machine, and it's only gonna inbreed it til it's unusable

This is probably more on the illegal side but I wonder if AI dataset poisoning could be used to distribute malware or cause significant damage to the LLM itself. Those kinds of things alone would cause a significant decrease in the usage of LLMs for a long while if it can be tricked into harming users like that.
Firstly, no.
Secondly, LLMs and even image gen are not inherently evil technology to completely shut them down, this is just the same situation as:
Nuclear energy.
Blockchain.
NFTs.
Where one big thing screws up the public perception of the technology for decades to go.
Fuck big companies.
Now THAT is the kind of cyberpunk warfare that be wild to see

It's possible to trigger false positives in an anti virus, not more than that though
That would be massively illegal, you have to remember, LLMs and their associated image generators are well within the law doing what they're doing. Distributing malware is a crime, and even if they were breaking the law, you're not allowed to break the law in retaliation.
if that headline is true, then that might be the most dumbest statement ever by an ai company
AI bros are dumb and are creating a tool to encourage everyone's dumbness.
"Nooooooo why you don't let us steal your arts so we can replace you?!?!"
AI companies being "abused" would suggest there is a relationship between the artists and these tech giants, but all those bridges have already been burned down when the corporations didn't even sit down at the negotiating table. AI has existed for less than four years and I'm already so exhausted of it, it's actually crazy how boring and stale the concept science fiction writers had fantasized about has become.

They'd argue prompting is art because some creativity is required to create a prompt, I've literally argued with some dipshit over thins on yt.
The thing is, if prompting was really art the AI generated picture wouldn't really be relevant would it? They'd be sharing their prompts online instead lol
4:07 THIS! LITERALLY THIS! THAT'S WHAT I'VE BEEN SAYING! Either hire/commission someone to make art for the ai, pay artists for the proper licensing to use their art for ai, or get permission from artists to use their art for ai. There, 3 paid options and 1 free option (though far more limited). But of course, that's too much money, time, and effort and they want to blow up their companies NOW, not later. Screw ethics and sustainability, all that matters is limitless human greed.
Such an abusive crowd, these artists. No one ever thinks of the poor, destitute tech billionaires.
For anyone who can't tell, the above comment is sarcastic.
Ah yes, the AI ethics saga continues:
OpenAI: 'Stop protecting your own work so we can use it for AI training without your permission to profit!'
Artists: 'How about no?' *activates Nightshade and Glaze*
OpenAI: *Surprised Pikachu face* 'That's abuse!'
OpenAI is like that kid who yells 'pause' just before you tag them in a game. They complain when artists defend their rights while simultaneously attacking them. It's a classic case of the bully crying foul when the tables turn.
OpenAI, the champion of 'ask for forgiveness, not permission' until someone says 'no.' It’s like watching a toddler throw a tantrum because you won’t let them eat your entire birthday cake. 'But I wanted it!' Yeah, and I wanted my art to remain mine-funny how that works.
Next up: OpenAI introduces their groundbreaking 'Do As I Say, Not As I Do' AI ethics module. Because nothing says 'advancing beneficial AI' quite like digital colonialism with a side of gaslighting.
Openai's eerie parallels to authoritarian playbooks:
1. Suppressing dissent by calling self-defense 'abuse'
2. Exploiting resources (aka artists' work) without consent
3. Centralizing power faster than a dictator on caffeine
4. Gaslighting artists so hard they’re considering a career in competitive cheese rolling
5. Accidentally embodying the very capitalist exploitation Marx warned us about... Or maybe it isnt an accident.
ClosedAI: "Bringing you tomorrow's dystopia, today!" *Kinda eerily fits them*
Also not to mention sam altmans worldcoin surveillance thing... Screams 1984 and brave new world.
Its almost like the for profit ClosedAi wants to be skynet.
Arguments against OpenAI's claim that it's "impossible" to train AI without copyrighted material include:
Alternative Training Methods: Companies like Adobe demonstrate that AI can be trained using non-copyrighted content, suggesting that OpenAI's reliance on copyrighted material is more about convenience and cost than necessity.
Cost-Effectiveness: Critics argue that OpenAI prefers using copyrighted materials because it's cheaper than licensing or creating original content, indicating a profit-driven motive rather than an insurmountable barrier.
Transformative Use Defense: While OpenAI claims its use of copyrighted content falls under "fair use," many believe this argument weakens when the end product is commercialized, challenging the notion that training AI constitutes transformative use.
Overall, critics assert that OpenAI's position is an excuse to avoid the financial implications of proper licensing.
OpenAI's exploration into generating ethical porn raises concerns about its profit motives and ethical implications.
Critics argue that this shift indicates a prioritization of revenue over ethical standards, as the company seeks to capitalize on a lucrative market while navigating public backlash.
Profit Incentive: By considering NSFW content, OpenAI may be aiming to tap into a profitable sector, potentially prioritizing financial gains over user safety and ethical considerations.
Excuses for Cost-Cutting: The claim that it's exploring responsible content generation may serve as a convenient excuse to avoid investing in comprehensive content moderation and licensing strategies, which could be more costly than simply allowing user-generated explicit content.
Risk of Exploitation: Allowing AI-generated erotic content could exacerbate existing issues with non-consensual material and exploitation, suggesting that OpenAI is neglecting the broader societal impacts in favor of commercial interests (as usual)
Even though i already said it, here it is again:
ClosedAI: "Bringing you tomorrow's dystopia, today!"

Problem: stuff from the last 95 years that wasn't made by the federal government or another AI will be completely unavailable to AI. It should be obvious that this is a very bad training data set.
@@bootmii98i love how that can be tied back to Disney's Mickey Mouse laws, lol. They're the reason copyright lasts for 100 years.

We just need to make it illegal to use ai. Look at human cloning. We are fully capable of creating that sice the 1990s. But it is considered illegal and fines are so high the juice ain't worth the squeeze.
Generative AI is a threat to human expression. So yeah this is a good point.
or at least heavily regulated and surveilled
I don't think AI, I think strictly generative AI. (Unless you did mean that, sorry) Because technically AI is used in other helpful and significant things we use in technology. But we seriously need some law crack-down on Gen AI. There's too much danger with that... Especially how gullible people are and how quick misinformation spreads.
i don't want to erm actually because i am an artist (actual artist) myself and the heavy use of ai does directly affect me as well but i think we should simply regulate it for the general public. ai does serve a lot of purpose in the medical field for example, and in places where having a human work would be dangerous/unintuitive. but generative ai? fuck that shit bro. ban it for humans. ai shouldn't be used as a replacement for our creativity
@@gonpachi_0303 Agreed. From what I can tell the most ai does in the medical field is tally all of the symptoms and side effects folks have. It is very simple so I wouldn't even consider it an ai or llm. We should still use it but it can be tallied by humans easily even though I think ai is good in that case. However I disagree about having it replace dangerous work. Not every wants to or can be an artist or a computer guy. We should just increase the hazard pay a lot for the dangerous jobs. Plus a bunch of folks find joy from doing it, so I won't judge.

This situation hopefully motivates people to make more programs like Nightshade and Glaze. Eventually the AI will be able to get around them, we need to have the backups ready.

Same - I'm wondering if low level irregular noise could achieve some similar effect? Even if it doesn't work I might do it anyways since many of my songs involve recorded rain or waves as ambience
Strangely that seems to have been taken care of by the recording industry itself to some degree. The AIs (so far) have been trained on so many A443 machine-tuned recordings that it requires effort to get them to produce a sound/voice that isn't. Software tuning is the glaze of the audio world, even if it wasn't meant to be.
There isn't any nightshade equivalent yet afaik, though software could probably be written to introduce microsecond pops and other noise that the machines would "hear" but speakers couldn't produce.
I feel like it be illegal or at least heavily regulated when it comes to generative ai.

Yeah, they've always worked to some degree. These tools and those like them, even if not super effective, are a hitch and the tool can only develop further if more people are using them. Even if it seems at times to be getting less effective or whatever, keep using it.
The fact that they’re complaining about it means it’s working.
Like how Germany protested against the use of shotguns in trench warfare.
It’s beside the point, but German opposition to Americans using shotguns in combat was due to it being “dehumanizing”. Shotguns were and are hunting weapons, the thing you shoot deer with. Compared to a “respectable” death by rifle or pistol shot, being killed as a shotgun was seen as equating the target with animals.
Yes, this was in the same war that saw industrial-scale use of chemical weapons and flamethrowers. No, that is not the argument the Americans used to get the Germans to shut up about it.
With an actual incoming, violent authoritarian regime in the U.S. in 2025, I'm even more uncomfortable with potentially demonizing an entire European nation for what wartime negotiations were discussed with Allied forces 80-plus years ago.
Imo ai bros should be fined the same as intellectual theft, copyright, theft, etc. Not imprisoned, not discouraged, but fined, because if you know what their drive is, that's most effective. They want money. Make ai a way to lose, not gain, that money they want.
