I'm finding that AI seems incapable of generating aperiodic monotile designs. I suspect this is because the shape is nowhere in any training data, and it doesn't pattern--so without patterns to train on, it produces obvious errors. It invents geometry that stands out like a sore thumb. I think it has potential to serve as protection against deepfakes. I made an online store around all this, but I haven't really advertised it because I'd like a little more confirmation before I run with it. Would love some feedback on the idea
It could be counterdesigned, but I agree, that would be a nightmare for any AI engine not specifically set up to do it.
I'm reminded of a novel that I utterly can not recall in general, but I'm thinking of a scene where someone realizes they're in a simulation because the sidewalk cracks are wrong. They knew the real scene there happened to be a shape (of what I can't recall) in the cracks, the simulation was showing random cracks.
I don't think it even requires a monotile. Just use an event-specific non-repeating pattern on a backdrop.
