Google is giving users greater control over AI-generated content by introducing an option to remove visible watermarks from Gemini-created images and videos.
The change addresses complaints about Nano Banana, Google’s popular AI image generator, which places a noticeable watermark in the bottom-right corner of generated images.
Google’s new setting will allow users to remove the visible watermark from Nano Banana images.
The feature will also extend to videos created using Gemini’s Veo AI model, giving users similar control over generated video content.
New Watermark Removal Setting
Google will add the setting to Gemini and Flow, while users will also access it through AI Mode in Google Search.
However, the option will not be available in countries where local laws require visible watermarks on AI-generated content.
Google has not indicated that the change will remove other forms of AI identification from generated material.
The update instead focuses on removing the visible watermark that users can see on generated images and videos.
The move gives creators more flexibility when using Google’s AI tools for content production and other projects.
Meanwhile, the change comes as competition intensifies among major technology companies developing increasingly advanced generative AI systems.
Google continues expanding Gemini’s capabilities across its products while improving user controls over AI-generated media.
The watermark removal option could make Google’s AI tools more appealing to users who want cleaner-looking generated content.
However, legal requirements will continue to determine where Google can offer the new feature.
