Did you know that Jingna Zhang, the Singaporean photographer/artist who famously won a court case against someone who plagiarised her work, has founded an anti-AI-scraping art and portfolio platform and social media called Cara?

I didn't! But I love that this is happening, and gaining attention. So if you're still on DeviantArt (the gen-AI art generator platform) it's time to move on

So I became a regular supporter for cara.app in the hopes it will slowly grow into a good place for my art friends, I suggest others do the same if you can.

My one friend Joobie's on there that you can find at @gunkpup if there's someone you want follow.

Seems like Cara doesn't share their user's content for AI training, but their app shares everything else with Microsoft and other partners. 30 attempts in less than 24 hours, and I only opened the app once that day...

These "savior platforms" always have something under their sleeve, especially when all just seems too good to be true.

I highly recommend you read and share with any artist you know the very interesting review of the Cara app by @davidrevoy

This new app sounded like a lot of hot air to me and his critic seems to give me reason, I quote: "it will be the same circus as in any other proprietary social media, the replica of the same famous profiles, the same source of power, the same flawed rules and my prediction: the same future enshitification. But all without AI. 'Yay' I guess?"
