I saw "Nano Banana" mentioned — is it a new model or just a codename?

Nano Banana is Google’s fun internal codename for their advanced image generation and editing model. It powers the image features inside Gemini.

There are different versions: regular Nano Banana (fast) and Nano Banana Pro (higher quality and better reasoning).

You can access it directly in the Gemini chat by clicking the image generation icon.
