hi! so with the new scratch TOS, ai has been allowed to use things on scratch for training (it is better outlined here btw https://scratch.mit.edu/projects/1269751874#/ ) . This means that your art **could** sadly be at risk of being used to train ai. But! do not fret! if you are still planning to post art to scratch, there is a way to poison ai using a simple filter. These filters can be put over art to confuse ai and mess up its "art" generating abilities (if you can, totally go google it, its quite interesting). i would also recommend going to nightshade.cs to grab higher-quality overlays. How does this work / how can i use them? you can download one of these overlays from here, or search some up online (search AI disturbance overlays for best results). Then, grab the art of your choice and insert the overlay into the art software, and set it at 10% opacity, then post to scratch! as simple as that :D
space or click to view multiple ai overlays MAJOR eyestrain warning btw - posted 2026 january 22 at around 10:25pm my time
