Researchers have developed a new method called Anti-Prompt to protect images from unauthorized animation into videos using text-guided generation models. This technique introduces subtle, imperceptible perturbations to an image, which cause significant visual inconsistencies and structural failures when the image is used to generate a video based on text prompts. Anti-Prompt works by weakening the model's reliance on textual guidance and strengthening its visual-only processing pathways, exploiting the observation that I2V models perform poorly without text prompts. The effectiveness of this protection is evaluated using a novel protocol that analyzes generation artifacts and inconsistencies, demonstrating strong protection capabilities across different I2V architectures.
