  • Gemini 2.0 Flash users are using the model to remove watermarks from images.
  • The model will even try to fill in gaps created by the watermark.
  • Gemini 2.0 Flash’s image generation feature is currently only available in Google’s developer-facing tools.

Recently, Google expanded access to Gemini 2.0 Flash’s image generation capabilities. The model fully utilizes Google’s latest image synthesis tool, Imagen 3, to give users the ability to generate and edit images. Now that users have had some time to test out the feature, they’re noticing it can do some things it probably shouldn’t be able to do.

It didn’t take long for people to begin testing the boundaries of Gemini 2.0 Flash’s image-generation feature. While the tool is capable of generating some impressive results, it also appears to be lacking some important guardrails. Users are finding that the model has zero qualms about depicting celebrities or copyrighted characters. It also appears to be quite skilled at removing watermarks from images.
