Google's Gemini 2.0 Flash model has introduced a powerful feature that allows users to remove watermarks from images, including those from prominent stock photo agencies like Getty Images. The tool generates and edits images efficiently, using simple text prompts, but is classified as experimental and not for production use. This tool's efficacy in watermark removal has raised ethical concerns among copyright holders, given its lack of restrictions compared to competing models. While it shows impressive skill in this area, it struggles with semi-transparent or extensive watermarks, highlighting its limitations.
Gemini 2.0 Flash’s experimental image editing capability excels at watermark removal, drawing concern from copyright holders due to its few guardrails and ease of access.
Despite being labeled as experimental, Gemini 2.0 Flash allows users to effectively erase watermarks from images, raising significant ethical questions about copyright infringement.
