@PyrexContainer Hey, first, Nightshade is proprietary and not even has a Linux release; so big red flag; and also unfortunately, it's a scam. The method was defeated a week after release, but I love the intent (not the method) and I'm impressed by the Press coverage they got, and how many non technical artist still think this "armor of paper" will protect their art of anything. There is a lot of needs of a psychological protection into this product.
@davidrevoy it is deployed by the university of Chicago, they're not the kind of people to hide malware in stuff, its probably due to the team leader wanting to turn it into a product or wanting patents, anyways it's simply just a noise tool with some hidden patterns, you could definitely do the same in gimp, i dont know about krita though

@PyrexContainer No, it's not just a filter, it's an AI regeneration of the picture with nudging at the pixels level some overall pattern to trick the AI labeling process. (eg. flag a cat for a dog picture). It's extremely costly in GPU resources compared to a filter like the ones of GMIC (Krita/GIMP).
Also, have you seen what happened to Cara over the past weeks? they were offering this type of poisoning as a service... 12 Million of artworks scrapped. 3 times. https://www.threads.com/@zemotion/post/DcAmokzlLWj -

"I didn't knew that in real-life, DDG has a 60% market share" - ok, you're getting there. Now look at the DDG poll and see that the Fedi poll has the EXACT same split between pro/anti
"Or maybe fedi polls have *very huge* bias" - except when they don't, as we already know with the DDG poll
"That would only feed the troll" - Statistician is the word you're looking for

@encukou Thank you for confirming, but great to know it will do for QRcodes!
It is on my to do list.

Good to know, thank you! I imagine it will be very difficult and require some fundamental modification at the text object level to receive effects like that. Right now, the only software I know that can stack effect deformation on top of editable text object is Blender (screenshot, eg. Wave Modifier on dynamic text object, multiline). It looks like "vector magic" how the nodes of the font itself can be influenced by a global effect at their root. Amazing.

It's not as hard as it first seems. The font has to be rendered down to a vector at some point anyway; so what you have a is a very complex shape. the problem is how the LivePathEffect system itself was designed and then on top you'd like for edits to be positioned correctly and that is more interesting too as you have to feedback the positions to the text selection too.

@davidrevoy
Graphite.art can do that as well

@SmartmanApps @Eldeberen @davidrevoy @breizh An AI-generated variation of Madonna’s “Like a Prayer” sat in Australia’s top 20 singles chart for 16 weeks, even after people found out it was AI-generated. It's significant enough to conclude that most of people have literally no problem with AI-generated content. https://www.optimistdaily.com/2026/08/what-counts-as-real-music-australias-charts-just-drew-a-line/

"An AI-generated variation" - no it wasn't. Only the drums and vocals were AI, the rest was human https://www.abc.net.au/news/2026-07-17/josh-fawaz-like-a-prayer-now-has-ai-credits-on-spotify/106924470 You're not doing well with getting your facts straight
