Yes, it's Gemini Flash model, meaning it's fast and relatively small and cheap, optimized for performance rather than quality. I would not expect mind-blowing capabilities in fine details from this class of models, but still, even in this regard this model sometimes just surprisingly good.

Google also open sources Gemma LLMs and embedding models, which are quite good at the time of release (SOTA or near-SOTA in the open source field).
SweetSoftPillow··on Nano Banana image examples
This is a Google's Gemini flash 2.5 model with native image output capability. It's fast, relatively cheap and SOTA-quality, and available via API. I think getting this kind of quality in open source models will need some time, probably first from Chinese models and then from BlackForestLabs or Google's open source (Gemma) team.

They better learn it today than tomorrow. Even though it's might be painful for some who does not like to learn new tools and explore new horizons.
SweetSoftPillow··on Claude’s memory architecture is the opposite of ChatGPT’s
Please check an example #2 here: https://github.com/PicoTrex/Awesome-Nano-Banana-images/blob/...

It is not "language alone" anymore. LLMs are multimodal nowadays, and it's still just the beginning.

And keep in mind that these results are produced by a cheap, small and fast model.

SweetSoftPillow··on A German ISP changed their DNS to block my website
It seems like more and more ISPs are doing that: https://koreanrandom.com/forum/topic/85072-modxvm-problem-in...

They also mention Movistar, O2, and Vodafone. A systematic violation of the internet's integrity, carried out on the scale of an entire so-called "free" EU(!) country. It's a disaster.

SweetSoftPillow··on Writing with LLM is not a shame
I've been using em dashes since long before LLMs existed, and I won't stop. Some people might think it's a sign of an LLM, but I know it's just a sign of their own short-sightedness.

It's definitely just a matter of personal preference. To me, your image looks much worse and has the very distinctive look of the GPT-image-1 model.
