Tumblr is doing some stupid AI shit so go to blog settings > Visibility > Prevent third-party sharing.
also use Nightshade and Glaze to protect your artwork and images!!!!
here's a link to Nightshade
here's a link to Glaze
best combination is usin Nightshade then Glaze on your images. Glaze creates a protective layer and Nightshade poisons the A.I. software.

Thusly we conclude our tale
With vanilla extract being a meme, I wanted to share some black history of Edmond Albius a black slave who revolutionized vanilla pollination.
He used a technique he learned of pollinating melons to polinate the orchids to create the vanilla beans. Vanilla was rare and a luxury mainly due to only being able to be pollinated by its natural pollinator in Mexico.
unfortanely, he didnt receive any money for his discovery despite being called the main man who revolutionized pollination, he died in poverty...
everyone say thank you Edmond

Hey, do yâall remember how Tencent said they were developing faceID AI to identify people in riots, and then they suddenly created an AI art generator to turn your selfies into anime?
Do yâall remember that time that someone discovered facial recognition cameras couldn't see through Juggalo makeup, then Facebook had a fun âsee what you'd look like with Juggalo makeupâ thing, and then facial recognition cameras could suddenly see through Juggalo makeup?
Do yâall remember how, on Twitter, Elon started a tirade against artists who ask for credit when their art is reposted, and he suddenly he created one of the first big art AI programs?
Do yâall remember how AI destroyed the field of freelance translation, despite the inferiority of the machine translations, because companies didnât care about the quality of the translations? They just wanted it done for free?
Do yâall know how companies will see a lot of money going into a New Tech Thing (like, say, AI art apps) and will jump to try and implement that New Tech Thing into their tech? For example, how it felt like every big company and celebrity had an NFT to sell?
Just wondering.
This maybe sounds mean, but I think we should be able to send doctors âhey, you were wrongâ letters.
I was misdiagnosed with asthma when I was 12 and took asthma meds daily for seven years, and then it turned out I hadnât had asthma in the first place; I actually have a different breathing problem. I donât think the doctor who told me I had asthma (my pediatrician, who I was no longer seeing by that point) ever found out sheâd been wrong. (This is one of at least four misdiagnoses in my life, from a variety of doctors, that I can think of off the top of my head.) Similarly, my first therapist told me she didnât think I was autistic because I wasnât obsessed with trains. I donât think she ever found out that I am, in fact, autistic, because I wasnât seeing her by the time I was diagnosed.
I get that it might be demoralizing to have someone contact you specifically to tell you that you messed up, but I think it would be useful for doctors to have data on how often they misdiagnose patients, especially since some doctors tend to think the patient is generally wrong when attempting self-diagnosis. It would be useful for my former therapist to move me from the mental column of âpeople who erroneously think theyâre autisticâ to âpeople whose autism I did not notice when they were right in front of me.â It would be useful for my pediatrician to realize she needed to look more closely and listen to kids when their breathing symptoms werenât the classic asthma ones.
Doctors can get on their high horse and refuse to believe patients a lot of the time, and the power dynamic makes that dangerous in plenty of situations. I think it would be helpful to have a way to at least alert doctors when we have proof they messed up.
If you can track them down, you can send them those letters. Like, fully embrace being heard in this way. Have your current doctor print out something proving the diagnosis, send it. Let them know. Good ones will adjust their views. You may make a bad one have some sort of unpleasant feeling or other, which they deserve.
Go for it.
Thereâs a protest going on against AI art over on artstation, so I feel like now is the time for me to make a statement on this issue!Â
I wholeheartedly support the ongoing protest against AI art. Why? Because my artwork is included in the datasets used to train these image generators without my consent. I get zero compensation for the use of my art, even though these image generators cost money to use, and are a commercial product.Â
Musicians are not being treated the same way. Stability has a music generator that only uses royalty free music in their dataset. Their words: âBecause diffusion models are prone to memorization and overfitting, releasing a model trained on copyrighted data could potentially result in legal issues.â Why is the work of visual artists being treated differently?
Many have compared image generators to human artists seeking out inspiration. Those two are not the same. My art is literally being fed into these generators through the datasets, and spat back out of a program that has no inherent sense of what is respectful to artists. As long as my art is literally integrated into the system used to create the images, it is commercial use of my art without my consent.
Until there is an ethically sourced database that compensates artists for the use of their images, I am against AI art. I also think platforms should do everything they can to prevent scraping of their content for these databases.Â
Artists, speak out against this predatory practice! Our art should not be exploited without our consent, and we deserve to be compensated when our art is exploited for commercial use.Â
