Corporate AI slop<\/span> feels inescapable in 2025. From website banner ads to outdoor billboards, images generated by businesses using AI<\/a> tools surround me. Hell, even the bar down the street posts happy hour flyers with that distinctly hazy, amber glow of some AI graphics.<\/p>\n On Thursday, Google launched Nano Banana Pro, the company\u2019s latest image-generating model. Many of the updates in this release are targeted at corporate adoption, from putting Nano Banana Pro in Google Slides for business presentations<\/a> to integrating the new model with Google Ads for advertisers globally.<\/p>\n This \u201cPro\u201d release is an iteration on its Nano Banana model<\/a> that dropped earlier this year. Nano Banana became a viral sensation after users started posting personalized action figures<\/a> and other meme-able creations on social media.<\/p>\n Nano Banana Pro builds out the AI tool with a bevy of new abilities, like generating images in 4K resolution. It\u2019s free to try out inside Google\u2019s Gemini<\/a> app, with paid Google One<\/a> subscribers getting access to additional generations.<\/p>\n One specific improvement is going to be catnip for corporations in this release: text rendering. From my initial tests generating outputs with text, Nano Banana Pro improves on the wonky lettering and strange misspellings common in many image models, including Google\u2019s past releases.<\/p>\n Google wants the images generated by this new model\u2014text and all\u2014to be more polished and production-ready for business use cases. \u201cEven if you have one letter off it’s very obvious,\u201d says Nicole Brichtova, a product lead for image and video at Google DeepMind<\/a>. \u201cIt’s kind of like having hands with six fingers; it’s the first thing you see.\u201d She says part of the reason Nano Banana Pro is able to generate text more cleanly is the switch to a more powerful underlying model, Gemini 3 Pro<\/a>.<\/p>\n
