unlike glaze, though, you should run EVERY image you post through nightshade: memes, screenshots, food photos, literally everything you can, because they WILL be scraped and every time they are, it fucks the dataset up a bit more
Everybody, please read the user manual on how to use it correctly. Use it as the last step before uploading, use a fitting tag and use that tag with the image. For example "car".
Nightshade's own creators basically admit that it's not going to work yet. At best, you delay the usefulness of your image to scrapers for however long it takes for the newest AI training regimens to adapt to the version of Nightshade they were modified with (perhaps a few months at most).
It is a shame that it does not have gpu acceleration options for AMD gpus, since that is what I am using on my PC.
And like, I am a mediocre furry artist, so my work is unlikely to be used but
every bit counts. And I DO NOT want my work used to train those systems, so
will be running it on stuff
For the people saying this needs a mobile version: It'll eventually be integrated with the web version (webglaze), so it'll be easy to use on any device and sent directly to your email!
if enough of us do that their lil AIs will then eventually go X_x and need to be reset. Do that often enough it'll get costly in terms of time and computing power. The only way to beat people like this is to hit them in the pocket book hard.
Hmmm, this got me thinkin', there's extensions on Firefox that can automatically analyze the personality or bot level of accounts.
Maybe we can eventually get Nightshade as an extension so we don't even have to do anything! 🧐
so this is interesting but one worry I have is those of us who get "AI sickness" (nausea from uncanny valley/AI generated images) will also be essentially "poisoned" ourselves by anything that is run through this?
ACCESSIBILITY APPS FOR THE BLIND, PARTIALLY SIGHTED, AND THOSE WITH LEARNING AND COGNITIVE DISABILITIES RELY ON AI IMAGE AND TEXT RECOGNITION DATASETS!! THIS WILL POISON THOSE AS WELL‼️
Nightshade needs a mobile app. I can imagine generative AI programs going down in flames even faster if this tool wasn’t limited to desktops and laptops.
