Amazing model. The only limit is your imagination, and it's only $0.04/image.

Since the page doesn't mention it, this is the Google Gemini Image Generation model: https://ai.google.dev/gemini-api/docs/image-generation

Good collection of examples. Really weird to choose an inappropriate for work one as the second example.

More specifically, Nano Banana is tuned for image editing: https://gemini.google/overview/image-generation

		Yep, Google actually recommends using Imagen4 / Imagen4 Ultra for straight image generation. In spite of that, Flash 2.5 still scored shockingly high on my text-to-image comparisons though image fidelity is obviously not as good as the dedicated text to image models. Came within striking distance of OpenAI gpt-image-1 at only one point less.

Is it a single model or is it a pipeline of models?

		Single model, Gemini 2.5 Flash with native image output capability.

They're referring to Case 1 Illustration to Figure, the anime figurine dressed in a maid outfit in the HN post.

I assume OP means the actual post.

The second example under "Case 1: Illustration to Figure" is a panty shot.

		This was reported and has been removed recently (https://github.com/PicoTrex/Awesome-Nano-Banana-images/issue...), although the issue wasn't closed.

For anyone confused, the offending example got removed 10 minutes ago

I have no idea how people think they can interact with an art related product with this kind of puritanical sensibility.
