Visual artists are fighting back against unauthorized uses of AI on their work by using tools that contaminate and confuse the AI systems. One tool, for example, can make AI think a dog is a cat.

Artists have been fighting back on a number of fronts against artificial intelligence companies that they say steal their works to train AI models — including launching class-action lawsuits and speaking out at government hearings.

"So it will, for example, take an image of a dog, alter it in subtle ways, so that it still looks like a dog to you and I — except to the AI, it now looks like a cat," Zhao says.Glaze and Nightshade team at University of Chicago "Glaze is just a very first step in people coming together to build tools to help artists," says fashion photographer, a new online community focused on promoting human-created art."From what I saw while I tested with my own work, it does interrupt the final output when an image is trained on my style." Zhang says plans are in the works to embed Glaze and Nightshade in Cara..

"Any tool that is going to allow artists to express their consent very much fits with our approach of trying to get as many perspectives into what makes a training data set," he says.
