  Why do I feel like everytime I hear news such as: “Thing will fight against A.I.” Is either a scam or a bandaid to a flood.

  I don’t mean to be negative. But fighting software with software, like this, feels like a cat and mouse game.

    I also want my camera to give the best representation of the object I photograph.
    If I want post processesing done, I will do it later.

    Mainly because it is a scam

    Did you read the article? Even a little of it?

      I’m not quite sure where you’re getting at. The basic idea is to be able to easily trace back wether or not a photo has been edited, as well as provide some level of proof the photo is authentic. However this is just a lock waiting to get picked to me. Hence my cat and mouse analogy.

  For those wondering why some artists were actually pro-NFT? Because of this concept. Tie the art to the artist with an online database to look it up.

  But also: This is worthless. Because the credentials are tied to the image themselves. So either remove the metadata (which I would expect for privacy reasons) or run it through a very simple filter/quality downgrade to garble up the hidden pixels.

  The ACTUAL solution to this is indeed the online database. But the artist registers the image to themselves and then google images or whatever does image recognition (similar to how you can get DMCA striked for singing a few words of a song) to match it to the database. Lower the quality and it still matches. And if they find your rendition of Kim Possible’s feet in an AI image, it can potentially give you some of the revenue from that.

  But that wouldn’t require new proprietary hardware.

    Why not go with some kind of certificate chain instead?

    Here’s the image… signed… here’s who signed it.

    Is it for edit/changes?

    Here’s an image that was edited based on an earlier image. Here’s who signed that… and it’s base images hash which can then be looked up if they decided to see what those images were?

      That only works if everyone plays by the rules. Literally everyone.

      Here’s the image, signed. Here’s an unauthorized copy of the image or copy of a portion of the image, with the pixels extracted and saved as a .jpeg with none of the identifying signature or certificate data. Here’s that same image posted to 4chan and reddit.

      A certificate chain would only work if every image displaying piece of software in the world not only played by its rules, but were also incapable of displaying or modifying an unsigned image. I don’t think I have to spell out for you what kind of nightmare that would be.

      That is the metadata solution tied to the image itself. It doesn’t work because all I have to do is strip the metadata. This is why there is almost a ritualistic worship of certs.

      The key is that you need the validation to be decoupled from the image. Computer Vision is pretty much perfect f or this and is why I specifically referenced how DMCA violations are detected now. Google and Amazon do the scan, not the end user.

      Well, that’s exactly what a Blockchain is. Just in public and not part of the image itself.

  I hope they did it better than Canon did. theregister.com/…/canon_verification_cracked/

  This is the best summary I could come up with:

  ---

  Content Credentials, announced in October, includes encrypted metadata detailing where and when the photo was taken and with what camera and model.

  When a photographer opts to use the feature, they’ll see a Content Credentials logo in the camera’s display, and images will be signed through the use of an algorithm.

  Users who find these images online can click on the CR icon in the [pictures’] corner to pull up all of this historical manifest information as well, providing a clear chain of providence, presumably, all the way back to the original photographer.

  Content Credentials can help instill trust in shared images, but only if it sees notable adoption.

  “The Leica M11-P launch will advance the CAI’s goal of empowering photographers everywhere to attach Content Credentials to their images at the point of capture, creating a chain of authenticity from camera to cloud and enabling photographers to maintain a degree of control over their art, story, and context,” the CAI, whose 2,000-member roster includes Leica, Adobe, the Associated Press, Microsoft, and Reuters, said in a blog post Thursday.

  Other M11-P specs include a 60 MP BSI CMOS sensor, Leica’s Maestro-III processor, and 256GB of storage.
