"A science fiction story is a story built around human beings, with a human problem and a human solution, which would not have happened at all without its scientific content."

Here's another quote:
For earlier takes on the idea that there are particular patterns that can fool artificial intelligences (AIs) or pattern recognition systems (even human ones), see Van Goom's Gambit from Van Goom's Gambit (1966) by Victor Contoski and BLIT (Secret Basilisk) from BLIT by David Langford.

For the more general case of suits that scramble input or otherwise fool the eye (and perhaps the machine) see the scramble suit from A Scanner Darkly (1977) by Philip K. Dick, the mimetic polycarbon suit from Neuromancer (1984) by William Gibson and the abglanz from The Mountain in the Sea (2022) by Ray Naylor.
