antiAI

antiAI can be used to protect images/audios/vidoes from AI recognitions by multiple algorithms. It only supports fawkes for now and will support more algorithms soon.

antiAI is developed by researchers at Department of Industial Engineering, Tsinghua University.

Requirements

bleach>=2.1.0

click>=7.0

cryptography>=37.0.1

fawkes

keras==2.4.3

mtcnn

numpy>=1.15.4

numpy>=1.19.5

opencv-python>=4.6.0.66

pillow>=7.0.0

python_version>=3.8

stego-lsb

tensorflow==2.4.1

Download

You can download it by:

git clone https://github.com/antiAIbyTsinghua/antiAI
cd antiAI

Usage

$ python main.py

Options:

• --test : run a test demo.
• --genkey : generate a new key to encrypt or decrypt images.
• --protect : protect images against AI.
• --recover : recover images from decrypted images.
• -d, --directory : the directory that contains images.
• -m, --method : the algorithmn to protect images (only support fawkes for now).
• -k, --key : the key used to encrypt or decrypt images.
• --clean : delete all generated files.

Examples:

For the first time use, you can test it by:

python main.py --test --clean

When it finished, it will print Test finished!.

To generate a new key:

python main.py --genkey

We strongly recommend you to keep the key carefully!

To protect files from AI recognitions and encrypt them with a certain key:

python main.py --protect -d images -m fawkes -k key

To recover files from decrypted files with a certain key:

python main.py --recover -d images -k key

If none of --test, --genkey, --protect, --recover is announced, both protection and recovery will be performed using an existing key. For example:

python main.py -d images -m fawkes -k key

You will get 3 kinds of generated images. The images ended by _cloaked are the original files produced by antiAI algorithms. They seem similar to the original images but are difficult for AI to recognize. The images ended by _sealed are visually the same as the cloaked images, while the original images have been hiden in them. The images ended by _recovered are recovered images from the images ended by _sealed.

Summary

antiAI can help users protect their pravicy against AI recognitions. Users can save images ended by _sealed in their devices and can recover the original images whenever they want. An unauthorized visitor can only reach the cloaked images and will never reach the original images.

All images in images/ can only be used for reference.
