Adding noise is not an effective strategy. It does not work.

It’s not any random noise, buterather a tool “poisoning” an image for AIs, while still looking the same(ish) to the human eye.

sounds cool, doesn’t work in practice.

The artists - or any other workers impacted by AI - will not be able to resist the tidal wave of shittiness, for one simple reason: the corporate world wants AI very badly, precisely to get rid of expensive artists and workers. It doesn’t matter to them whether AI is good or bad provided it lets them replace their expensive human workforce.

Unfortunately, in today’s dystopian capitalist world, when companies want something, everybody must bow to their wishes and there’s nothing anybody can do to stop them. It’s sad but it’s the truth.

Nothing legal that anyone can do to stop them

precisely to get rid of expensive artists and workers.

I worked with plenty of illustrators and graphic designers in my time - I’ll call them lots of things, but expensive isn’t one of them. I’m not even sure I knew one that could afford rent by themselves.

however little they’re paid, they’ll always be orders of magnitude more expensive than a machine. And the machine doesn’t complain, doesn’t rest, doesn’t get sick, doesn’t organize walkouts and produces results immediately.

doesn’t get sick

Oh machines get sick and then the real costs appear. (Am an electrician, I play doctor on automated machines, sometimes a human is cheaper when the whole plant stops for a $200 part that is not in stock)

No… they’re not. The cost is going to depend on a lot of things - which includes the profiteering of the capitalists that’s going to own the AI.

Point is, it’s not the costs that is the problem - that’s just the excuse capitalists use. They can externalize costs, or get the poor to subsisize their costs - what the capitalist class has always done. The point is class warfare - they hold the people who make them rich in contempt and they always have, and this is the case irregardless of whether the workers in question…

doesn’t complain, doesn’t rest, doesn’t get sick, doesn’t organize walkouts

That’s the whole point of hierarchies - the people at the top is incentivized to, and has the power to, kick down no matter how accommodating the people at the bottom is to their parasitic needs.

The work they do is absolutely expensive. My roommate, in animation, gets gigs in the 2-3k range for a few days work as her primary income stream. The issue with paying rent is because they’re sporadic. You may have 3 this month and 0 next. So in essence, they’re expensive, but rent is moreso.

To you No you do not have to be a slave to corpos, many countries are not hyper capitalists. It’s America you think of
