@golemwire Yes, Cepper, the gothic sorceress is another character (but it's common to have feedback of her named "Pepper" as my style is what it is). Her name is a pun: Cepper & Parrot
@davidrevoy
Speaking of names, is Parrot a reference to the Stochastic Parrots paper? -

@prahou @davidrevoy I'm starting to think that maybe I should wait for images to load before boosting, instead of trusting alt text.

@paculino @davidrevoy great idea!

Around 15 years ago a popular deep learning topic was turning photographs into apparent brushwork similar to different artists. However photographs have extremely high entropy to begin with, I suppose. Whereas genai [] I guess benefits from producing low entropy images from a random noise seed. Revoy's art is (until now) very polished, meaning the entropy is quite subtle and easily misconstrued as being low entropy. cf. storing entropy in bold outlines.

why did you just post the first panel of david revoy's comic

Quick visual comparison.

@davidrevoy This inspired me to paint something awful.
Come and get it, tin can:

@davidrevoy hey, it's a good illustration on Goodhart's Law. Remember that being a thing during COVID. Especially when it came to employers tracking productivity using mouse movements. Then those same employees figured out how to fool that software by installing mouse signaling software or vibrators to their mice.
But then again, how long is it going to take until new LLMs begin to copy those kind of techniques we apply to our artwork? It could be a never-ending cat and mouse chase when it comes to genAI and us.

@algernon did you have direct commentary on the effectiveness of e.g. iocaine ?

@screwlisp @davidrevoy @algernon @catsalad @realFedix iocaine is a completely different approach, feeding AI scrapers different data than people, the effectiveness is limited by your capability to detect bots and by the ability of the user of the data to detect the data is a tarpit

@lunareclipse
I suppose they are more different than I thought off hand. I recall nightshade's demonstration was modifying a picture of a cow with subtle visual cues that would have a bot scraper erroneously machine-label it as a leather wallet. In contrast I suppose @algernon 's iocaine is a tool for ensnaring and triangulating bot scrapers (or poisoning them, if you will).Bemusing avian intelligence is a broad topic.
