You poison it and you dont use it. That'd how you fight AI. With tarpits and poison. They're like Mentats.

That doesn’t work, based on the results we’ve seen so far. All attempts to poison AI have quickly been bypassed.

Is there any source to this claim?

Sure, a quick google search turned up this, published just four days ago:

Or here’s a discussion on r*ddit about how Glaze is totally ineffective against poisoning image generation AIs. (Same principles apply to others like Nightshade)

https://www.reddit.com/r/aiwars/comments/12f9otc/so_the_whole_entire_glaze_ai_thing_does_it/

Basically every poisoning technique is by its very nature too specific to be useful for poisoning all the types of AI out there, or is too invasive and ruins the content for humans too, or is not strong enough and it gets lost in the cacaphony of data anyway.

Really it’s a clever idea in principle but in practice AI poisoning isn’t really a mathematically viable way to combat AI.
