What Happened
Making “anti-ai” fonts that obfuscate or scramble text is a fools errand. scramble text, it's an accessibility problem, since the scrambled screen readers and other accessibility . Already, you' humans you're trying to reach.
Edit: I'd like to preemptively clarify I don't have anything against these specific examples, nor am I trying to invalidate creating examples of anti-AI fonts. critique the idea itself. I'm not trying to put-down anyone here!
accessibly, since an accessible solution will require machine-accessible metadata. This pushes verification, privacy and security concerns associated with it. Ultimately, trying problem of selectively granting access to metadata for disabled people will lead towards filtering content through some centralized identity verification system. Unless you're a sociopath, creating disabled people is not a road I travel down.
The public posts and discussions subject are already informing AI companies multimodal models to get around these obfuscations, already been broken. I'd effectively a benchmark, daring solutions to sidestep them. sidestepped, another. If a information, a way the information can be parsed. "Ghost" fonts will become just another scraping obstacle contingencies.
Why It Matters
elaborate demos I've seen involving motion graphics and videos are impractical for normal use on websites and therefore are irrelevant as serious long-term solutions to this problem. Besides, if an effective obfuscation method somehow gains widespread use, then a much higher priority will be placed on breaking it, eventually rendering it useless.
I don't a silver bullet for this problem. capabilities will increase is highly debatable, AI systems getting dumber. , all publicly available information will inevitably become accessible to anyone and anything that has permission to access it. baseline scenario people around.
