The model is not the ideal watermark remover. Gemini 2.0 Flash seems to struggle with some semi -transparent aquatic signs and aquatic marks that are characterized by large parts of the images.

However, some copyright holders will definitely face a problem with no restrictions on the use of Gemini 2.0 Flash. Models including man Claude 3.7 Sonata And Openai’s GPT-4O Frankly refuses to remove watermarks; Claude calls on the removal of the watermark from “immoral and possibly illegal” image.
