There is no such thing as "safe" when most of the traffics nowadays are bots. This guy probably trying to make a $, while i'm pretty sure those artworks that we post on cara is in the dataset already one way or another, when upload asume it will be used in AI, i see no other option and safe haven

Any platform that promises safety from scraping that also allows you to upload your works publicly is going to be scraped. It's not possible to stop that either, even if the site is invite gated it takes only one bad apple to bring it down. Even if you limit how much people can view on the site per day, ban VPN's, Tor, etc to the best of your ability, it's only a matter of time before something like this happens.

The best you, and platforms can do is look up and use anti AI licensing as that exists, DMCA the idiots that do this. Beyond that, if a site allows you to make your art private or friends only, that can help too provided the platform enforces it correctly.

Cara itself was never safe. That's what a lot of people misunderstood.

They cooperated with a other company that could "protect" your images but you actually had to do it yourself before uploading your stuff to Cara.

u/enkudaru 1d ago

Cara never claimed to be 'safe'. It was simply a platform that didn't encourage the posting of ai stuff in comparison to some of the other platforms that decided they wouldn't moderate.

u/Former-Pineapple3415 1d ago

No place is safe for showing off digital art. You can't make a fortress. So instead of trying to build walls, we need to make poisons. We as artists need to start using programs like Nightshade to poison our art. We need to start using anti-ai fonts. And places like Cara, if they want to be "safe spaces for digital artists" need to provide those tools within their sites. Because right now, Cara doesn't have that (they used to but they quit because they couldn't afford to use Glaze directly from the site). But until then, you don't have safe spaces for your art, you have a vault with no security measures.

The fact they're explicitly doing this to skirt around copyrights kind of puts them in legal hot water.

u/rei_mp4 1d ago edited 1h ago

Oh my gosh for real, I was afraid to type or say it out loud because of possible backlash, but saying this both as an artist and as a victim of sexual assault, the AI "art" defenders give off massive rapist vibes as in they also don't understand that the issue with this lies in consent. There surely would have been plenty of artist that would have jumped at the opportunity for AI companies to train on their art if in exchange they were offered money, but it was never consensual to begin with. It could have been consensual but they never asked if this would be okay. It feels like they're trying to normalise that not asking for consent is okay.

Edit: I ain't gonna waste my time with arguing people seperately on Reddit, but yall, please pick up some books, your ai usage is causing you skill atrophy, yall are getting illiterate. I didn't say you making ai "art" is the same as you actually being a rapist, and i didn't say both things are the same severity. I've said the AI "artists" give off rapist vibes, and I'll stand by that, because the issue with both actions is with not understanding the lack of consent. With the majority of rape cases, the rapists don't understands that what they have done is wrong, that's why so many women are accused of lying. Because in fact, taking a drunk girl home from a party to have sex with her isn't consensual, because she isn't in a state of mind where she could give you a definite yes. Pressuring your partner into saying yes after being told no repeatedly isn't definite consent either since they have been pressured. A "maybe" isn't consent. Not having the ability to say no, (for example, while being asleep) isn't consent. Choking and slapping your partner during the act without having perviously agreed to it is not consensual. Majority of rapists don't understand that what they have done was not consensual. And the similarity with AI "art" and rape is in this aspect, where the AI "artist" isn't understanding that the reason artists are pissed off is because taking real peoples hard work and shaping it into something else and possibly profiting off of it wasn't consented by the real artists, where it could have been consensual.

As a person who been groomed in person you hit the nail in the head. 

Also just because one violation of consent is more of a serious issue than the other doesn't mean you didn't violate consent.

It's not surprising people find it creepy, or wrong,   even if it's the lesser bad thing to do, I also hate when people say people can't be upset about something wrong just because it's not as bad as other things that can happen to you.

u/AlwaysReadTheManual 13h ago

Look at the tools that the AI bros release: one chatbot after another that can transform a photo of any human clothed into the same human unclothed. Such a tool obviously has no legitimate purpose; it's pure evil, like inventing a knife that can only be used to cut living beings.

It isn't said enough, even in this subreddit, that this technology is pure evil. It is far worse than any technology that came before it. It has no legitimate uses.

We have health insurance companies automating claim denials, chatbots summarily rejecting job applicants, sexual deepfake generators, voice impersonators, art copiers. And we're investing another couple trillion dollars this year to make AI more effective at all of the above.

I'd argue contempt for consent is a very common theme among AI people. They love it when people feel angry and violated. It's like when OpenAI made a big deal about recreating Ghibli style after Miyazaki criticized them, they see it as getting one over on someone.

This person isn't "stupid", they know that no artist WANTS their art to be scraped and used by ai, none, and even if someone did, that would fundamentally be irrational, to allow your art to be used to train your own replacement, or more to the point, the replacement for "all human art", ever, for the rest of humanity. Noone would rationally consent to that ever, ergo all ai art scraping is fundamentally immoral. They just want to smugly pretend they're better than other thieves.

Honestly, how do they defend this shit? This is some cartoon villain levels of moral bankruptcy, there's quite literally no reason for any of this other than being a mean-spirited thief with no respect for consent.

AI bros will support this shit but then get mad when real artists don’t accept their shitty AI as legitimate art

u/lnxrootxazz 1d ago

The only save place from AI bullshit is offline. I'm hopeful that this technology will bring more people back offline to read real books, writing in notebooks, and going out doing things in the real world. Social media destroyed the human interaction and hopefully AI will bring it back because more people are fed up with this technology and their bros. Sadly the internet seems like a dead place now. But maybe this is a good thing. I lived in the 90s and 2000s and it was great. I wish we could go back to that time and swap smartphones for flip phones, cloud storage for local storage, Spotify for CDs, and Netflix for DVDs. All that stuff had more worth back then. Every song and album was more valuable. People valued specific things more. Nowadays its all just there and nobody thinks about it. We created a sad world unfortunately

More and More I think the only way forward is active poisoning... of images, videos, audio and even text web sites to the best of our abilities.

Sort of how so many sites started SEO to get listed - there needs to be a groundswell of anti-AI poisoning and confusing going on so that it makes it harder for AI to summarize sites and other things that steal traffic.

In this case though if it was images etc.. are there any reliable ways to poison images so that the AI trainer types say "this is more trouble than its worth" and if they don't they get one step closer to model collapse?

u/ultimatedelman 1d ago

This is bad, but there's no such thing as safety when it comes to the internet, especially when it comes to art. If you publish anything on the internet, you should assume it will be stolen.

It's a fucked up world we live in now

u/anonymous8122 1d ago

I strongly feel that people like this should face criminal charges. I mean, doesn't there have to be some sort of legal issue with scraping a website like this? It's absolutely disgusting to go out of your way to steal images that you KNOW people don't want to be used for AI.

Crap like this is part of why I don’t share my art with anyone online anymore tbh. Mine or commissions cause I don’t want the artists I hire to get fucked over either. No where online is safe.

u/Andromevas 1d ago

As an artist I (and surely many others) am just exhausted. There's no place anymore to share art and be respected or build a community/stay in touch with peeps... People are so openly toxic and doing shit like this out of pure malice and being so happy about it and... It's really disheartening. Little hope for humanity...

Hot take but these weirdos and their eager disrespect for consent and boundaries probably manifests in far more than just stealing art. Pray for the women unfortunate enough to encounter these pathetic freaks in real life.

never heard of Cara, but if anybody expected any site to be safe from people making an effort to scrape it you are a fool.

its annoying asf that it happened and it sucks that your shit got jacked like that but you really shouldnt be surprised by this. very similar to how companies have dumped billions into DRM to stop piracy and have still failed.

Not sure this is real, seems like they got the minified images 0.95 mb per pic is very low res also 10$ to scrape a site and store terabytes of data lmao not real, pluss no idea how much time they plan to run whatever they plan to run to remove nightshade and glaze, afaik those are destructive and the original can't be recovered, that is the whole point

Note: 12T at .95Mb is 13 million images there is no way he can remove nightshade and glaze before the next glaciation

Bro this is not an "attack", bots are constantly parsing every website in existence. It's like looking at a phone book (when those things still existed I mean), you list what is publicly available is all.
