Photo editing goes bananas

This image showcases Google’s “Nano Banana” (officially Gemini 2.5 Flash Image), the breakout AI release of the summer. The image editing model allows users to heavily modify photos via text prompts whilst maintaining highly consistent features. Since launching in late August, it has attracted 10 million first-time Gemini app users and processed over 200 million edits. The technology integrates with Google Photos and the new Pixel 10 phones. The model tops LMArena’s Image Edit leaderboard and includes visible watermarks plus SynthID digital watermarking on all edited images. Nano Banana enables photo combining and blending, style transfer, and multi-turn editing within the Gemini app.
