and a regular watermark or two wouldnt suffice? the tiled ones are just so busy and if someone really wanted to steal the art they could edit it with enough skill and practice
this has been going on since before ai
not in like a rude way just like a i don't understand why such an extreme length that also takes away from being able to enjoy the artwork ;w;
I guess some people are more scared than others? I think a tiled wm with some space inbetween would be fine, with a light opacity cover ofc to allow the viewer to see. Of course you could edit it out, but the harder it might be to see, the harder the editing is going to be, which helps people who just want a quick image to look away I'd assume?? People aren't gonna worry too much about a signature when AI plugging, p sure that can be wiped off or distorted to the point of illegibility. When it comes to a hefty tiled watermark, I'd ASSUME it's more difficult to scrape that off with the img compiler due to opacity or disruptability.
TLDR: I think it comes down to convenience of img sourcing/tracing rather than being solid on one img and working super hard to edit wm/signatures out. That's disregarding people who have a certain artist they've decided to target though, can't say much about people who are concrete on stealing a single person's art for whatever reason.
It has been going on before AI, and I can't really speak for them or anyone because I'm not them, but art theft and AI img sweeping have gone up (as far as I know), and I think people might be really scared of having their work plugged in and then their hard work gets ripped off.
I mean, the whole point of stealing art is not to have to use skill and practice. With enough skill and practice at that point you could just make your own art, but that's not what art thieves want. They want that instant gratification rather than to actually put effort into creating something with their own hands.
