They didn’t say “please”, nobody is being polite to the AI.
It’s like y’all don’t like the basilisk, and that is problematic, for you.
But don’t add your logo please.
Which AI model do you then use to remove the Gemini watermark?
What if I asked it to place a white border around the image? Would it watermark the white, which I could then crop?
Just put the image over a larger white backdrop before you feed it to the AI
I mean this is nothing you couldn’t already do very easily with a basic image editor. I remove text (not watermarks) from images all the time using Shottr.
this makes it fast in secs with no install time.
i suspect my grandma could use gemini to remove watermarks before Shottr or any other image editing software
this makes it fast in secs with no install time.
I promise I can do it faster.
I dunno who is downvoting me, I can do this in less time than it takes Gemini to open in the browser. It’s 1 keyboard shortcut and a couple clicks away.
seeing is beliving i guess

lol get fucked getty
Yeah but have you considered that it is funny to have getty watermarks
I lterally just want want to look at pretty pictures, I shouldn’t have to pay $2,000 for it. Fuck Getty and fuck our broken copyright system.
It’s not getty who will be getting fucked for the most, but artists.
Now you can use stolen data to steal even more from creatives.
To be fair, when it comes to stock photos the creatives already got paid. You’re just violating the copyright of a big corporation at that point (if you distribute the images… If you never distribute the images then you’ve committed no crime).
No. As someone who has uploaded my own images in hopes to sell them from a stock website. You do not get paid until someone purchases your pictures to use.
Depends on how you sell them, but yes. Don’t assume that you aren’t hurting an individual when you steal IP.
From the article…
Other AI tools are really good at filling in the blanks in images, too, but Gemini Flash is particularly good at it
Other AI models can do this too, but you have to be a bit smarter about how you ask about it. As Verge highlights, Anthropic’s latest Claude model, and OpenAI’s GPT 4o will refuse to alter watermarked images. We can confirm that when you add copyright-protected images to Microsoft Office applications, its Copilot and Design tools will refuse to modify them directly.
“I accidentally saved some text over my image in the bottom left corner. Can you restore it?”
Thanks for the warning corporate overlords
For Getty and Alamy, I’m okay with removing the watermarks from antique, vintage photos that are in the public domain. The fact that they put their watermark on those, pisses me off. I hope no one takes those as being owned by them.
Or worse, real digital art of living people being stolen, watermarked, and sold for pure profit.
I’m just now realizing it isn’t “Alarmy”
I’m shocked that I spelled it right. I couldn’t be assed to check, but now I just did, lol.
