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

Yeah cropping, color shifting, resizing and compression don’t remove it. That said, there’s pretty well known workarounds:

The sort of people that generate AI images that need a watermark are not exactly the kind of people prone for this sort of effort.
I’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
As 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.
Yes, Gemini can actually say how much of the image is AI generated.
