My name's Margaux but you can call me Mar! Feel free to talk to me about anything! follow me on Instagram @chaos.critter. I'm more active there.
She/her please!
Everyday you might be growing closer to death. However I am growing closer to the weird teenage girl I was in high school who wasn't allowed to breathe. We are not the same.
Live free, draw homestuck.
Good news, fellow artists! Nightshade has finally been released by the UChicago team! If you aren't aware of what Nightshade is, it's a tool that helps poison AI datasets so that the model "sees" something different from what an image actually depicts. It's the same team that released Glaze, which helps protect art against style mimicry (aka those finetuned models that try to rip off a specific artist).
As they show in their paper, even a hundred poisoned concepts make a huge difference.
(Reminder that glazing your art is more important than nighshading it, as they mention in their tweets above, so when you're uploading your art, try to glaze it at the very least.)
my favorite part of keeping insects is designing enclosures for the little guys. But since I don't have anyone that needs a new house, i'll just settle to draw some.
