A new tool lets artists add invisible changes to the pixels in their art before they upload it online so that if it’s scraped into an AI training set, it can cause the resulting model to break in chaotic and unpredictable ways.
The tool, called Nightshade, is intended as a way to fight back against AI companies that use artists’ work to train their models without the creator’s permission.

Zhao’s team also developed Glaze, a tool that allows artists to “mask” their own personal style to prevent it from being scraped by AI companies. It works in a similar way to Nightshade: by changing the pixels of images in subtle ways that are invisible to the human eye but manipulate machine-learning models to interpret the image as something different from what it actually shows.

And I just do not see how that can stigmatize a group of people. It is like saying that the use of the word “headache” in non-medical contexts (e.g., “this homework is a headache”) stigmatizes people with migraines. It just does not.
Listen, I live in a state where anyone who commits a violent crime, before they catch the person the police say, “he was hallucinating, they were hearing voices” aka mental illness is why they are doing this as a way to take away more rights. Also in this state if you are in a conservatorship for mental illness you legally are barred from voting. How can you say hallucination is not a loaded term? It is different from headache because people are not stigmatized for migraines. No one is taking away your voting rights for migraines. No one is saying you are a murderer for migraines.

You can use nearly any word in derogative sense so that it becomes offensive. “he had headache so strong, he went crazy”. Context matters. And I personally do not even associate hallucination with mental illness. If anything, I associate it with psychedelics. Words are like tools - you can harm with them, but you can use them appropriately.
