My art appreciation account. I don't post nor repost political stuff. I rarely repost at all, mostly just liking stuff. I like to keep things SFW & wholesome here.

He/him but you can refer to me however you like.

I'm going to tap the sign because it's a really good analogy imo:
The picture is a screenshot from the website for the Nightshade software project's question and answer section. The text in the image reads as follows: Is Nightshade or use of Nightshade illegal? Can users be found liable or sued by AI companies? I am not a lawyer, so I gone have talked to plenty of lawyers, none of them have any concerns about legality of me creating NS, or anyone using NS to protect their own art. One accurate analogy for using Nightshade is like putting hot sauce in your lunch that is clearly labeled "DO NOT EAT/SCRAPE." Someone stealing your food is doing so against your express wishes, and if they get sick from the hot sauce, you are not liable. No artist is able to force training data into a model. Only model trainers can voluntarily *take* your images (shaded or not), against your wishes, to train their models for profit. Contrary to some rumours/misinformation online, Nightshade is not a virus, it does not infect/affect any model against their wishes. And Nightshade can only have an effect on diffusion models, and only when a lot of shaded images are trained. Nightshade will not affect large language models, or any non-generative AI systems (medical imaging, facial recognition, self-driving cars etc...)
