Looks like Google’s Gemini 2.0 Flash AI has just stirred up a new controversy—people on X (formerly Twitter) have been showing off how it can wipe watermarks off images like they were never there. This has photographers, designers, and stock image providers pretty worried, and for good reason.

Watermarks are there to protect content from being used without permission, making sure artists and businesses get paid for their work. But now, with AI casually erasing them, it raises a big question—how do you stop people from using copyrighted images for free? If anyone can just remove a watermark with AI, what’s stopping them from using premium images without paying?

This unexpected “discovery” is likely to push companies toward upgrading their watermarking tech. Instead of visible watermarks, we might see more hidden, AI-resistant marks embedded into an image’s metadata. There’s also talk about using invisible patterns that AI can’t detect or erase, making it easier to track stolen content.

On the flip side, AI detection tools are also improving. Just like AI can remove watermarks, other AI models are being developed to catch edited images and flag unauthorized use. It’s a tech arms race—one side making smarter AI to erase, and the other making smarter AI to catch it.

The real issue here isn’t just about watermark removal—it’s about AI ethics. Using AI to remove watermarks without permission is basically stealing, and that’s still illegal. While AI is incredible, we’ve got to use it responsibly. Otherwise, creatives and businesses will be the ones paying the price (literally).

So, what’s next? Expect stronger watermarks, better AI detection tools, and more debates over where to draw the line with AI.
