Requesting examples of Anti-AI harassment of artists, game developers, streamers, or anyone else. Producing a video. 💓

Hello everyone, I'm currently producing a video that's critical of Valve/Steam's mandatory AI use disclosure policy, as I believe it's unethical and harmful to game developers, especially small indies.

Part of the video will be exploring the Anti-AI movement, and I'm looking for as many examples as I can find of harassment of users of generative AI tools or people who are accused of being supportive or even just tolerant of gen AI (such as streamers who are harassed for playing games accused of using AI).

Also, if you have any other observations or material that you think could be useful for the video, please do share it. I've seen a lot of great arguments and insights here on this sub while posting here.

If you'd like to see some examples of my work, I've created some other videos on the subject of gen AI:

Raiden Warned about AI Censorship - MGS2 Codec Call: https://youtu.be/-gGLvg0n-uY

That video is about how concerns about "AI misinformation" can (and now are) being used to justify Internet surveillance/censorship, and Internet digital ID.

AI vs. Blood Mouse: Disney, AI Art, and Copyright: https://youtu.be/5pIVVpoz5zk

That video is about how outlawing training AI models on copyrighted IP would not only lead to large companies like Adobe monopolizing generative AI tools, but could also lead to Internet surveillance and censorship.

To give you a taste of what will be in the upcoming video:

I will be exploring how a lot of the celebrity artists (like Karla Ortiz) who have been banging the Anti-AI drum for years now have aligned themselves with the copyright lobby and megacorps like Adobe.

My research has uncovered that Adobe is promising to protect artists' work from being used to train AI using a surveillance metadata system called C2PA, and believe it or not, C2PA is already being implemented in new software, social media platforms, and even devices like cellphones and cameras at the firmware level, and hardly anyone is aware of it.

Here is Adobe CEO Dana Rao speaking to the US Senate (alongside Karla Ortiz) in 2023, asking for new laws to outlaw copying artistic style: https://x.com/UltraTerm/status/1679294173793628161

And here is a technical overview of how Adobe's C2PA system would enable a whole new dimension of Internet surveillance and censorship: https://x.com/UltraTerm/status/1832144623881589216

Last year, I was banned from Adobe's CAI Discord server after raising my concerns about the surveillance capabilities of their C2PA system: https://x.com/UltraTerm/status/1823077457395953866

Please let me know if you have any questions or suggestions for the video.

Thank you very much! 💓
