I compiled a short list of anti-AI tools. If you know of others, please add them
Anti-AI tools
Glaze
glaze.cs.uchicago.edu
Glaze is a system designed to protect human artists by disrupting style mimicry. At a high level, Glaze works by understanding the AI models that are training on human art, and using machine learning algorithms, computing a set of minimal changes to artworks, such that it appears unchanged to human eyes, but appears to AI models like a dramatically different art style.
Nightshade
nightshade.cs.uchicago.edu/
Nightshade, a tool that turns any image into a data sample that is unsuitable for model training
HarmonyCloak
mosis.eecs.utk.edu/harmonycloa…
HarmonyCloak is designed to protect musicians from the unauthorized exploitation of their work by generative AI models. At its core, HarmonyCloak functions by introducing imperceptible, error-minimizing noise into musical compositions.
Kudurru
kudurru.ai
Actively block AI scrapers from your website with Spawning's defense network
Nepenthes
zadzmo.org/code/nepenthes/
This is a tarpit intended to catch web crawlers. Specifically, it's targetting crawlers that scrape data for LLMs - but really, like the plants it is named after, it'll eat just about anything that finds it's way inside.
AI Labyrinth
blog.cloudflare.com/ai-labyrin…
Today, we’re excited to announce AI Labyrinth, a new mitigation approach that uses AI-generated content to slow down, confuse, and waste the resources of AI Crawlers and other bots that don’t respect “no crawl” directives.
More tools, suggested by comments on this posts:
Anubis
xeiaso.net/blog/2025/anubis/
Anubis is a reverse proxy that requires browsers and bots to solve a proof-of-work challenge before they can access your site.
Iocaine
iocaine.madhouse-project.org
The goal of iocaine is to generate a stable, infinite maze of garbage.
