At least from this page it looks like the images generated don't have a watermark on them. Hopefully there isn't an invisible one either.

The article says that all images have SynthID watermark which is invisible mark indicating the image was AI generated.

Why would you prefer otherwise? Seems like tragedy of the commons to release flood of unmarked AI generation images, among many other risks.

Because people don't want random water marks being applied to their artwork. We've been using AI edited image and video using "filters" for years and the world hasn't ended. Time and time again these AI labs will fear monger how bad and dangerous these AI models are when in reality it is not the case and is just an excuse for them to exert power over others using their lead.

If you can’t see the watermark (you called it “invisible”) then what’s the issue?

You can see it depending on the image since it adds noise to the image.
