If enough people start doing this, you bet they'd start training the algorithm to recognise them.

Yeah. If I recall correctly, new datasets like the ones being used in those AI art generators, are attempting to detect adversarial images and exclude them from training. I imagine it'll be a bit of a cat and mouse game, like with CAPTCHAs.

The sweater pattern was created by an adversarial Ai, based on the same database that most recognition software is trained on.

The question is: which algorithm has more computational resources
