The Snit that Don't Fit

Operation Gluttony

If you didn’t already know, your blogs are being scraped by AI. Check this post for more information.

I’m sure many of you agree, this is a problem. I and some friends though have realized there might be a solution to this.

We’re going to poison the AI.

How Operation Gluttony is going to work.

Step 1: Secure

- make sure your blogs are secure. Go through the steps in the earlier linked post to make sure the AI can’t scrape your actual blogs.

Step 2: Create

- Create a side blog. Two side blogs. A dozen side blogs. You need a side blog to use where you’re willing to let the AI scrape. This will be the key to poisoning it.

Step 3: Share

- Spread awareness. Share this post. @ mutuals or people you believe would want to be apart of this. In order for it to work, we need numbers. This is a base post that you can roblog as many times as you want with as many @’s as you want. Make your own posts about it if you want. Use the tag “#Operation Gluttony” in posts and reblogs. Let the people know.

Step 4: Poison

- Using your sideblogs, post “art.” Make blobs, blurs, poorly drawn squares, and label them actual art work. If everyone agrees that this “art” is the art you claim it to be, it will confuse the AI, which will in turn cause it to slowly poison itself. This is how the model works. It looks for keywords to learn about what types of art look like and how to do it correctly. If we confuse it while it consumes, it will change the end product, effectively “poisoning” the AI. If you’re confused about how this works, please reach out and I’ll be happy to explain it.

If we want to stop this AI, this is how we do it. Be the hand that feeds, and make sure every bite is poison.

I haven't been able to participate in Drawtober in two years and I'm itching to get back at it again! Feel free to use this list as well if you like! You can do all prompts, only some, combine them, whatever! Go wild, have fun! Please tag me so that I can see you art!

“The day began at 5:00 A.M. with the entrance of his valet Joseph, who was under specific instructions to rouse him no matter what. Joseph took this task seriously, at times dragging him from bed. One morning when no amount of coaxing would do, Joseph flung a basin of ice-cold water at his slumbering form, then ran into the next room, fearing he had gone too far. His employer’s bell recalled him. […] He gave the valet three francs as a reward.”

i feel like this is important enough to put on here.
