Artist Jingna Zhang built Cara, a platform explicitly intended to protect artists from having their art stolen by AI…and yet these people just won’t leave them well enough alone.

At the very least it makes the case that the artist believed strongly enough to prevent people from using their art without permission that they use increasingly radical methods.
It makes it so crystal clear that these shitheads are acting in bad faith when they’re circumventing custom made solutions to keep them from using the art.
As if a sign on your website saying “not for use in AI training” shouldn’t be enough. Like imagine I posted art with the message “not for use in movies” and then it got used in a movie. Open and shut.
This. I don’t believe it’s a losing battle like some in this thread, but even if it is, it’s still worth doing.
Yeah, I’m with you there. IMO things like
robots.txtshould have legal weight.
