School photographer Ian Gilbert says he has heard parents boasting about using AI to remove watermarks from his photos, the BBC reports.
Why it mattersIt is a sharper wrinkle in the school-photo story than simply using AI to make a cheaper portrait: the claim concerns removing a photographer’s watermark from existing images. Gilbert’s account is reported by the BBC, not independently established here. AI image tools are now brushing up against questions of consent and ownership as well as the family photo budget.
Discuss: Is removing a watermark with AI a harmless shortcut, or a line that platforms and parents should treat as off-limits?
