Artists Flock to Cara as Anti-AI Platform Gains Popularity

Cara's user base skyrockets as creatives seek refuge from Meta's AI policies, highlighting the growing divide between tech and art communities.

Cara prohibits AI-generated art, providing a safe space for original human-made creations.
The platform's user count surged from 40,000 to 700,000 within a week due to Meta's controversial AI practices.
Founder Jingna Zhang emphasizes the need for respecting artists' rights and protecting their work from unauthorized AI use.
Cara employs Glaze technology to shield artwork from being scraped for AI training.
The rapid growth poses challenges for Cara, which is still in beta and relies on volunteer engineering support.
