No, they are very resistant to modification that can be done easily. That being said I doubt it is impossible

- snissn 5mo agoI’m surprised! I guess I’m being naive but I would imagine you could pass an image to an image model without synthid and have it reconstruct the image in a net new way without the markers. I guess I’m wrong? That’s cool if the watermarks are so deeply ingrained that they persist
- cephei 5mo agoAs I understand it, they modify the image by applying a special Gaussian noise filter which affects each pixel in the image in subtle (possibly not reversible) ways. The detecting service will look for this noise pattern to flag it, so even a part of the image is enough to know it was generated by AI.
- vitorgrs 5mo agoYes, Gemini can actually say how much of the image is AI generated.
- janalsncm 5mo agoYeah cropping, color shifting, resizing and compression don’t remove it. That said, there’s pretty well known workarounds: https://github.com/wiltodelta/remove-ai-watermarks https://github.com/wiltodelta/remove-ai-watermarks
- surgical_fire 5mo agoThe sort of people that generate AI images that need a watermark are not exactly the kind of people prone for this sort of effort.
