This Is Crazy?????

Good news, fellow artists! Nightshade has finally been released by the UChicago team! If you aren't aware of what Nightshade is, it's a tool that helps poison AI datasets so that the model "sees" something different from what an image actually depicts. It's the same team that released Glaze, which helps protect art against style mimicry (aka those finetuned models that try to rip off a specific artist). As they show in their paper, even a hundred poisoned concepts make a huge difference.

(Reminder that glazing your art is more important than nighshading it, as they mention in their tweets above, so when you're uploading your art, try to glaze it at the very least.)

Love without Sex

I’m doing a Philosophy paper on Asexuality. Please reblog if you think Love without Sex is possible! I really need the data. Like if you think love has to have sex.

Some of you didn't grow up with Jamie and Adam telling you failure is always an option and that is okay, you just gotta approach the problem differently. Or if you did, you didn't internalize that message. (Also Meet the Robinson's anyone? From failure you learn!)

Seriously! So what if your first attempt fails? Try again! Do something different! Sometimes solutions aren't always clear and we have to be creative! It is okay to fail! Its okay to even walk away from the problem entirely and try something completely new! Just don't let that failure bog you down and fester.
