Vy the way, when you get watermarks like the one in the lower right corner of your AI generated image there is an AI tool to help brush that out.

The free download reduces the output image to 600x600 pixels so you just need to resize it back to the original 1024x1024.

Since I make no pretense about being the creative force behind the images, I like to leave the watermark.

I occasionally remove the mark when I crop or modify the image.

The watermark might lead people back to my profile. I see that as a plus.

Come to think of it. I almost always drop links to the source of images that I use.

BTW: The thing I find amusing is when people copy images from istockphoto and leave the watermark. Such people advertise to the world that they are simply copy-and-pasting images. The iStock contract allows people to use watermarked images in the design phase. They want you to purchase the rights on publishing.

!LOL

Sorry, I wasn't clear. I don't think that is a NightCafe watermark since the other images you've posted don't seem to have that watermark. What I think happened is that the AI model "hallucinated" that watermark.

Here's a discussion about that:

The DALLE-2 images had a very clear watermark.

I would not be surprised to find that NightCafe was inserting identifying marks in their works.

The person you cited seems to have a poor understanding of copyright and fair use. He said:

A lot of AI generated images retain the watermark [...] If you sell something with that image with no agreement from the rights holder it is not fair use.

A watermark is simply a device for tracking the source of things. It has little to do with copyright. Fair use refers to the use of small sections of a larger work. The quote I showed is fair use.

To resell a work, one needs to have an agreement with the creator.
