Type designers have created a free font that "poisons" AI

Type designers have released a free font called 'Anti-Comic Sans' that is designed to 'poison' AI systems by confusing their optical character recognition and machine learning algorithms.

This initiative highlights growing concerns about AI's reliance on visual data and the ethical implications of adversarial design.
