Only prolonging the inevitable with this. Kinda like DRM in video games, this is going to do literally nothing to the people that want the data except maybe be a minor inconvenience for a month or two.
Wasn't the last attempt at this defeated by only 16 lines of Python code?
If this takes off, it will be illegal within a year.
There'll be a new Digital Sabotage Act, written "with input from industry leaders" and voted on without debate or enough time to read the bill.
If this takes off, it will be bypassed within a month. Adversarial training is something Stable Diffusion users already invented, and we use it to make our artwork better by poisoning the dataset to teach the network what a wrong result looks like. They reinvented our wheel.
It's fine, as outside of laboratory conditions it won't work anyways (diverse image "reverse labels" would erase their signal to noise ratio of biased pixels across aggregate real world training data), so no need to stress about any kind of reaction to it.
I've heard of this recently! I like how they use the term "poison" because it makes me imagine that AI non-art is a bunch of evil aristocrats and Nightshade is the cyanide we're slipping into their beverages.
