Creating listing images and whitebox photos for Amazon products, Extracting structured data from property listing text for analysis, Image editing as a Photoshop alternative
It excels at specific, practical image generation and data extraction tasks but struggles with iterative refinement and complex consistency.

Image editing is now working so well, last week i used nano banana instead of doing anything in photoshop.
Hacker News • HackerNews • Use case: image editing instead of Photoshop
this new model is better than Nano Banana but MUCH worse than Nano Banana Pro which now nails the test cases that previously showed issues.

Only falling back to the more expensive provider when necessary. In some datasets this reduced geocoding costs by 60–90% without reducing match quality.
Hacker News • HackerNews • Use case: Geocoding addresses as a fallback, more expensive provider in a cascading pipeline.
The thing that made it instantly popular was that there were no ads... If you were looking for authoritative information, the best result would usually have risen to stay at the top for an extended period of time. Losing that type of immutability was one of the saddest developments.

Being the default brings network effects that is hard to switch away.

I switched back to Google since I was using !g bangs so often, and that was when I was in high school.

Subject consistency across up to 5 characters and 14 objects is the feature that jumps out for me. That's the capability that makes brand mascots, ad sequences and storyboarding actually viable at production scale, without manual frame-by-frame fixing.

The model doesn't care. The SDK doesn't care. Your app doesn't care.

if I did it now I’d definitely just use nano banana.

I need safe space to keep my context (outside of all the noisy... Google...).

notepad is supposed to be like the nano for windows.

The AI extracts structured data from listing text (build year, heating type, energy certificate, roof condition, etc.) and feeds it into a deterministic cost model.

I've been vibe coding apps for internal use and using Nano Banana for listing images and whitebox photos.

The LAST thing I want is a summary...at the top of the email...highlighted..that I CANNOT turn off.

When you try to work iteratively, it bakes in artifacts. On 5-6 iteration the image is just the spirit of JPEG itself.

This is not a system prompt, it's a UI bug and nothing more than an app prompt. The model doesn't even come close to the system prompt.
