It sucks that artists will now be expected to jump through hoops to prove they are legit. It sucks that clients feel pushed into demanding that. But you know what sucks the most?
Generative ‘AI’ built off of our work without our consent or compensation. FIGHT IT!!! Resources 👇🏻
Your country doesn’t have one? If you can, try at least talking to fellow peers from your country, inform and educate them, organize on a local level. Talk with your politicians if that’s possible, talk to journalists.
Honestly, whatever you do, PLEASE don’t lose sight of who the real enemy is. Companies behind generative AI exploited all our work, our private data, they moved fast and broke things. They continue to break them. Don’t fight with others who are trying to pick up the pieces.

Maybe it's different for everyone's workflow or 2D vs 3D but I have so many different WIP files saved as I go so if anyone ever asked me for proof I'd be like "I have 73 WIP files which would you like to see"
@GeorgeCrudo
I hear you. My process is run-of-the-mill and I work in Procreate so I have timelapse videos of every illustration I’ve done in the past four years. But I’m just lucky and many work differently :/
@katriaraden
This is a pretty useful tool for scanning markets for your artwork and adding an AI protective layer to prevent scraping, glaze also works for this but I have found that this one is less noticeable on the final result
@KelvinAvey3DArt
Yeah, but I have to warn people that this adds a watermark on your work that basically informs scraping systems that your work is AI generated and shouldn’t be included in training datasets collections. So if people use AI checkers, it might lead to unintended confusion.

There's a much more simple solution and even though I hate it the technology already exists in the form of NFTs. Hashing a work of art and having that hash stored to mark it as legitimate would solve the problem.
