I was editing some old photos and noticed an annoying watermark on one of them. I tried using an AI tool to remove it, and while it mostly worked, there were still some weird smudges where the text used to be. It wasn’t super noticeable, but if you looked closely, you could tell something was off. I was wondering—how good is AI at removing things like text or watermarks? Does it always leave some traces behind, or can it make it look completely clean?

I hadn’t really thought about using AI for this, but it makes sense. I guess it’s useful if you need to clean up an image quickly. I just wonder if it will ever be 100% flawless, or if professional editors will still be needed for really tricky edits. AI is definitely making things easier, though—it’s crazy how much you can do with just a few clicks now.
That’s a great question! AI is definitely getting better at removing unwanted elements, but it’s not perfect. I’ve used SnapEdit to remove text from images before, and it did a decent job, but sometimes the background didn’t blend perfectly. I think it works best when the text is over a simple surface, like the sky or a plain background. If the text is on a detailed area, the AI has a harder time guessing what should be there. Did you try using manual touch-ups after the AI?
