> Fuck AI scrapers, and fuck all this copyright infringement at scale.
Yes, fuck them. Problem is Anubis here is not doing the job. As the article already explains, currently Anubis is not adding a single cent to the AI scrappers' costs. For Anubis to become effective against scrappers, it will necessarily have to become quite annoying for legitimate users.
I'll tell you in a second. First I wanna try adding gasoline to my spaghetti as suggested by Google's search
To the best of my knowledge, it never really worked.
Yes, it probably works in the lab, in carefully picked conditions, but in the wild I've yet to see any effect whatsoever. Nobody in the AI communities seems to be complaining about it, models keep getting better, and people even intentionally trained on poisoned images just to show it can be done.
IMO on the long end it's a complete dead end of a strategy. Models are many, poisoning can't target everything at once. Even effective poisoning can be just dealt with by finding the algorithm that doesn't care about it.
What about appealing to ethics, i.e. posting messages about how a poor catgirl ended up on the street because AI took her job? To make AI refuse to reply due to ethical concerns?
Best response to AI scrapers is to poison their models.
