Besides the legal challenges to the practice of #AI scraping images, artists further pushed their non-compliance against late-capitalist corporations my intentionally mistagging their re-impressionist art to confuse scrapers. #TrendingOnFartStation #4K #DSLR

Pixel patterns cause image blur for corporations using uncurated datasets
By
–
The use of these pixel patterns resulted in increasingly blurred images throughout the 2020s for corporations still using uncurated and infringing web-scale datasets — as opposed to the industry standard datasets based on opt-in consent.

Adversarial Pixel Patterns Outside Natural Image Manifold
By
–
In particular, the pixel patterns used were specifically not on the "manifold" of natural images — thus making it difficult for algorithms such as Latent Diffusion to generate good results. Ironically, optimization techniques were used to find these adversarial pixel patterns!

Re-Impressionism: Digital Art Movement Against AI-Generated Art
By
–
Re-Impressionism is a digital art movement that became popularised in 2023, as a response for — and in opposition to — the trend of #AI-powered art. Its core technique is a modern version of pointillism, where intricate pixel patterns are used to depict scenes.

Consent and Fair Compensation for Artists in AI Training
By
–
This is a good thread! Almost all replies about consent being opt-in, which is the right thing to do both from the artists perspective and from the companies they are licensing their dataset too. Users will win that one at this rate… Then it's about getting them paid!

–
Not necessarily overfitting, but lack of transparency and easy editing are the major things. See previous thread:

ML Insights on Overfitting Apply Beyond Machine Learning Systems
By
–
Excellent post about applying insights from ML (overfitting control) to a much broader class of systems that optimize against an objective: politics, science, orgs, daily life. Underfitting is underrated.
