In addition of time of effort, we have to use tool to protect at cost of image quality. Why they won't leave artists alone?

No respect, no empathy, laziness, and desire to exploit the hard work of people for free. One AI weirdo literally called me an art fascist after I said in the comments that artists have the right to protect their artwork.

@@The_I_of_the_Angel333 you can tell AI prompters right away when they curse at you for pointing out the obvious.

I can use Nightshade with an amd apu, it runs through the cpu since I have no dedicated gpu; 16gb ddr4 ram. An image 900x840px took an hour and five minutes for me on lowest fastest settings.

This is going to take very little time before the training improves to detect this. I guess we have yet another cat and mouse game.
Wouldn't a meta tag signifying you don't want your picture to be used for training be better (legally speaking)?

[@johngddr5288]

Honestly, the best way to counter this exploitation is on the legal side where the law should be on the side of artists and the little guy.

why 2,5 gb to do a filter? i dont urdestand

[@KywokiYakasaki]

Since nightshade only accepts one tag, so it only changes one subject from the art, I have a question. Can you use nightshade again on the image you already used it before? Like, if you already changed a part of the art, can you use the nightshaded image on nightshade again to change some more parts of the art to have more different parts or it would work?

[@Yoh98]

I would cut original image to separate subjects, run each one sepertly through nightshade and then marge them together, it may take long but should work good. In nightshade 2.0 they should ad option to select every subject on art and tag them individualy.

[@KywokiYakasaki]

@@Yoh98 that's a good idea, the bad thing is that nightshade takes 6 hours to run on an image here =\ if it wasn't for that I'd do it, when I manage to afford a better pc I'll definitely do it, thanks for the tip :)

[@Yoh98]

@@KywokiYakasaki They also mentioned that in the future they will ad nightshade as plugin to webglaze, so maybe before you buy better pc you'll be able to make it faster this way.

[@KywokiYakasaki]

@@Yoh98 yeah I've heard about that, bur unfortunately the web version only allows a limited number of use, and as of what I know you can't select the intensity of the protection, so I'll keep using it on a pc before I can afford a new one, I think it will take maybe 2 years until I get a better one.
