While the world marvels at the current and future potential and advancements of AI, there is one thing we often forget, namely that the models are trained using the work of other people. The area where the AI generated results raise the most questions is that of graphics and videos.

Glaze is a tool designed for artists who want to protect their work from being used by AI models to generate similar results.

The installation kit is quite large, as it contains several machine learning libraries that the tool accounts for, so make sure you have sufficient space. The requirements for running the app are also quite demanding, as it requires the latest GPU cards.

Providing that you meet the requirements, you can select your artwork along with the app’s parameters. Intensity is one parameter that you need to be careful about, as the higher it is, the more visible it will be in the final result. The second parameter, render quality, is directly dependent on intensity, but can also be influenced by the specs of your PC.

You can preview the image, so you can get an overall idea about how the final artwork will look like. If you are happy with the results, then click the Run button to cloak your art from AI.

The developers point out that the protection can be visible in some images and art, particularly those with flat colors and smooth backgrounds. Although they are still testing and looking for ways to minimize the impact, be aware of this limitation before using it with any of your products.

Lastly, take note that Glaze is not a permanent solution, as new models with new algorithms emerge every day and the app may not detect them.
