Is there a creative commons or other open access art license that prevents it from being used to train AI? (lemmy.ml)

I really don't want my photos, writings, etc to be used for things like StableDiffusion or ChatGPT, but some of them I still want to release under an open access license that's free for others to use in conventional derivative works, just specifically not AI. Does such a license exist?

Or at the very least, if my work is to be used to train AI, then I think the final models and neural networks themselves need to be open source and also free for anyone to use (as in, people should be able to download and run the AI on their own computer, not have to use the company's web app. Does CC-BY-SA protect against this since it requires that any derivative works also be released under the same license? Does it work like GPL in that regard?

In theory, a copyleft licence should work. The problem however is a) how are you going to find out and b) how are you going to enforce it?

So, CC-BY-SA, which would require AI training database to be copyleft...

You're going to enforce it the same way you enforce the license on every random github project you make: you don't. Didn't they discover that Windows xp contained gnu code in it or something? I mean who prevents corporations from stealing random open source code for use in their shitty corporate closed source projects? It's not like anyone would ever find out.
