Google DeepMind has released Nano Banana 2, an image generation model that combines advanced world knowledge and subject consistency with faster inference speeds comparable to its Flash offering. The model is positioned as production-ready with capabilities previously associated with Pro-tier performance.

Google has relaunched its Flow AI creative studio as a unified platform for image and video creation. The updated tool includes free image generation capabilities and new editing features designed to streamline creative workflows.

Segmind has released SegMoE, a mixture-of-experts (MoE) diffusion model designed to accelerate image generation while reducing computational overhead. The model applies MoE techniques traditionally used in large language models to the diffusion model architecture, enabling selective expert activation during inference.
