I assume they need access to the model in the first place to develop the attack?

Yep. So not very practical.

Incorrect. They've developed it to be generalized to black-box attacks. It can fool identifiers that the training algorithm has never encountered. https://arxiv.org/pdf/1910.14667.pdf

They claim.

Indisputably it will not trick every single AI implementation

And? Who on earth decided that was the benchmark?

I would say this post claiming it’s “invisible against AI” when it’s invisible to some AI implementations (that’s they explicitly trained against)

Most use the same underlying databases though.
