We have some protection systems we use and recommend to protect your creative content.
Glaze is a system that disrupts AI mimicry. It adds a “glaze” to content and makes it hard for the AI to train on the style and content.
Nightshade is a system that poisons or distorts data that the AI would use to train on. After using Nightshade and your content is inputted many times into the AI model the content will look like something else to the AI.
