Google unveiled a fresh and state-of-the-art image editing model in the Gemini application on Aug 26, 2025. The upgrade enables Gemini with the ability to ‘generate anything from photorealistic masterpieces to mind-bending fantasy worlds.’ Experts claim it to be Google’s rumoured ‘banana’ upgrade, unlocking new dimensions of creativity and AI-driven visuals.
Google has stated in a blog post ‘People have been going bananas over it already in early previews’. Google CEO, Sundar Pichai, posted emojis of three bananas on X, indicating what? Apart from that, Demis Hassabis, CEO of DeepMind Technologies, has also posted about spotting a strange object (banana) in the lab during the weekend.
These events are a clear indication that the recent Gemini update is the long-awaited ‘nano banana’ feature of Google. The company introduced a native image editing feature during the early part of 2025 and has been taking initiatives to enhance the feature ever since.
While designing the latest image editing model, Google prioritized a human perspective of generating visuals with real-world-like flaws and imperfections that resemble specific individuals, animals, and elements. Hence, the new upgrade allows users to make pictures of different people and elements just like they are.
Google has also remarked, “Transform images in amazing new ways with updated native image editing in the Gemini app.”
