There is absolutely no way ensure uniqueness. Any transaction on the blockchains can be called as a NFT if anyone says the transaction id makes the NFT unique.

NFTs are nothing but a transaction on a blockchain (which can be proof of work or proof of stake). There will be unique transaction id (which proves nothing). The image associated and the transaction id or any data with the transaction has no relation whatsoever. For example, you can get access to this cat image and replace it with a dogs image and nothing happens.
