Hello Geminiusers!
Long time no see! I got pretty overwhelmed with all the work I had to produce in the past few weeks and didn't feel like using my small daily free time to write some gemlogs. But here I am, with a very painful headache and a few cool stuff to share.
Glaze is a protective tech against unethical AI/ML models, developed by the @UChicago team led by @ravenben, check them out on Twitter or in the link below.
In order to explain how Glaze basically works, @ravenben describes:
“Glaze analyzes your art, and generates a modified version (with barely visible changes). This "cloaked" image disrupts AI mimicry process.”
After looking at multiple tests ran by people with way more talent than me at creating beautiful pieces of art, I think it's a bit wrong to say that the changes are "barely" visible, but I would say that depending on the colors used it adds a cool little effect (especially on clouds or trees).
It is also good to note that you can tweek some parameters to your liking, but the simple fact that this is now a solution for artists scared of having their art stolen, I think it's a cool project to at least look up.

For a few weeks now I've been using Obsidian to take notes in classes or organize my ideas at work. I've been exploring the plugins and themes for a few minutes and found this one. Basically it allows you to quickly write queries that will use the integrated Search Functionnality of Obsidian to search for files and paste the result of the query directly in the markdown file you're working on. And we can even customize the output with a template feature. It's a cool plugin I thought I would share since I've tried it and thought it could save some time.

Now this cool little project I found is relatively simple, yet I never thought about doing it until I saw that it existed. It's the kind of feature you don't necessarily think of (unless you need it). Is-Animated is a small and easy to use Javascript library that allows you to check if an image (a GIF, APNG or WebP) is animated. There's a bunch of use cases where it could be handy to know on the go without having to manually open files and check with our own human eyes.

I kinda like the idea of gemlogs, simple and accessible blogs. I'm sure that there's something interesting to do with the Gemini protocol, we'll see!
