Here's a way to turn anti-AI rage into action:

Normalize crediting.

I can't tell you how many times an invite, email, blog post, random bit of social media content goes out with some kind of unattributed lovely art.

CREDIT ARTISTS. ON EVERYTHING. It's easy. And if we normalized crediting enough, the generated images would stand out on their own for absence of credit.

@edk side point: we also need to normalise crediting and requesting credit for models/whoever is in photos.

There is a lot of artwork going around attached to the name of a photographer/AI input creator, featuring a model but not crediting the model. This is not by accident. Models know which photos they were actually in and which ones are AI generated. The modelling community it good at finding and informing each other about fake images with real names. Crediting models and requesting credit of models is the one of the best things everyone else can do to help the modelling community fight theft of our work.

@coolandnormal Wow, I hadn't thought about this. Thank you for flagging! I've been uneasy about models in images for a long time and this makes a lot of sense.
@edk unfortunately it's getting increasingly easy to create fake imagery featuring real models. Like a lot of fake imagery, it often shows people who are trusted in a community supporting/marketing things they don't support.
