Artists, frustrated with Meta’s use of their work to train artificial intelligence, are flocking to Cara, a new anti-AI social platform. Cara’s user base recently surged from 40K to 650K in just a week, reaching the top of the App Store. Cara offers artists a safe space to share their work without fear of it being used in AI training. Founder Jingna Zhang, who has fought for artists’ rights, including a court win over copyright infringement, is aiming to protect artists’ content. However, despite its rapid growth, Cara is facing challenges like managing increased operational costs without external funding. (TechCrunch)
