GOOGLE LETS YOU HIDE GEMINI AI WATERMARKS

The update adds a toggleable "Media watermark" setting that removes the distinctive "sparkle" badge previously fixed to the bottom-right corner of all generated content from Google's Nano and Omni models. While the visible watermark is now optional, Google maintains invisible SynthID watermarks on all AI-generated content. This dual-layer approach lets users choose whether to display attribution while preserving metadata identification. The change applies across Google's AI generation tools, giving creators more control over the final appearance of their work. Users can access the setting in both Gemini and Flow to customize watermark visibility per project. Invisible watermarking technology like SynthID helps identify AI-generated content without affecting aesthetics—addressing a key pain point for creators who found visible marks restrictive for certain applications.
