Faster, cheaper, and better is exactly what developers want. Great to see Google continuing to optimize the AI stack for real-world building.

Hit a wall with the first-gen version on batch requests last month. p50 looked fine but p99 degraded badly enough to matter for real users. Does Lite actually address tail latency or just average throughput?

Shifting to this updated lightweight framework should significantly cut down on token latency for real-time visual apps. The drop-in compatibility makes it very easy to integrate into existing production pipelines without breaking structural code.

It is a great model! I have been testing it alongside Nano Banana Pro and Nano Banana 2 in @Google Flow. It is interesting to see how the three models interpret the same prompt too. I highly recommend checking out too! Tell @thesoragirls Ava I sent you.

ChatGPT hasn't been my main chatbot for a long time But Google AI Mode is. You basically have everything in one place: - Nano banana for image gen/editing - Gemini 2.5 Flash and Pro - Voice typing - File handling - Deep research And above all, the best web grounding available (better than ChatGPT, Claude, etc.). Google is the new Google.

Announcing Gemini 2.5 Flash Image! (Nano Banana) from Google DeepMind. This model brings you state of the art image generation! Here's 7m of demos. Today marks a leap forward in AI-powered image creativity with the launch of stronger native image generation and editing in Gemini 2.5 Flash. Here's what's new: 👤 Consistent character design: Maintain a character's identity across multiple images, changing their outfits, poses, and scenes without losing their core look. 🎨 Creative composition: Seamlessly merge elements from up to three different images into a single, cohesive masterpiece. The potential for surrealist art and unique compositions is endless. ✍️ Targeted edits with natural language: Go beyond the prompt. You can now make highly specific edits like "change the background," "restore this faded photo," or "edit the character's outfit" with simple commands. ✨ Design & identity adaptation: Apply a specific style, texture, or pattern from one image to another, unlocking new possibilities for fashion, product design, and architectural visualization. I've put together a ~7-minute video demo to walk you through these features and show just how powerful they are in action. We can't wait to see what you all create! Try the model out in Google AI Studio, Gemini app or the Gemini API.
