Social media users have recently discovered that Google's new Gemini 2.0 Flash AI model can be used to remove watermarks from images. As reported by TechCrunch, this isn't completely new. Other AI image models have been able to remove watermarks. However, Gemini 2.0 Flash appears to be better than all other AI models at this particular task.

Tanay Jaipuria, tech analyst and partner at Wing VC, is one of the many Gemini AI 2.0 Flash AI users who have discovered its ability to clear watermarks. The experimental version of Gemini also allows ‘conversational image editing’ when generating pictures from text prompts.

Google's AI model has drawn criticism for its ability to remove watermarks from copyrighted images, leading to concerns about copyright infringement.
