Ask HN: Any tool to remove AI Watermark from image?

I have created few AI images using Claude.

The image is perfectly created. But at the bottom there is a watermark image of AI that keeps coming up.

I want to remove that watermark. I already tried using ChatGPT, Canva, Adobe, Gemini but still the output doesn't match the original one generated by claude.

Anyone knows of any free tools which can be used to do this ? (I don't want to sign up and create an account to access this tool)

Wait, you create images using AI and then use AI for remove the watermark and get new watermarks put in because the new image is also handled by AI? That circled very fast...

If it's a watermark like in the 90s - seam all over the place - well, that's what a watermark is for.

crop it out?

but that may only be the visible watermarking, what about the likely steganography like watermarking?

they are already doing this with text

best bet, stop using closed model Big Ai

I'm curious how you created AI images using Claude despite Claude not supporting this: https://support.claude.com/en/articles/9002504-can-claude-pr...

The output of all AI tools is now stenographically marked whether they carry a visual watermark or not.
