Nightshade / The Glaze Project - tools to prevent Ai from misusing your art (and all private photos posted online for that matter!)

🔷

What is Nightshade?

🔷

"we have designed and implemented Nightshade, a tool that turns any image into a data sample that is unsuitable for model training. (...) Used responsibly, Nightshade can help deter model trainers who disregard copyrights, opt-out lists, and do-not-scrape/robots.txt directives. It does not rely on the kindness of model trainers, but instead associates a small incremental price on each piece of data scraped and trained without authorization. Nightshade's goal is not to break models, but to increase the cost of training on unlicensed data, such that licensing images from their creators becomes a viable alternative."

Nightshade vs. Glaze

🔷

"Glaze is a defensive tool that individual artists can use to protect themselves against style mimicry attacks, while Nightshade is an offensive tool that artists can use as a group to disrupt models that scrape their images without consent (thus protecting all artists against these models)."
