Last Tuesday, I watched a designer at a design tools company sketch a FigJam interface on paper, snap a photo, and ask an AI model to build it. Twelve seconds later, they had a working prototype with animations, interactive components, and proper design system implementation. No mockups. No handoff documentation. Just a sketch and a conversation. This wasn't science fiction. It was Gemini 3 Pro, and it's forcing us to rethink what "design" actually means.

Enter Nano Banana Pro, Google's new AI-powered image generation tool that's redefining the boundaries of creativity. Built on the robust Gemini 3 Pro foundation, this tool doesn't just generate images; it interprets, reasons, and aligns visuals with cultural nuances and current events. Imagine crafting a marketing campaign that seamlessly integrates trending themes or designing educational materials that feel as dynamic as the lessons they support.

Google has started rolling out ads in AI mode, which is the company's "answer engine," not a search engine. AI mode has been available for a year and is accessible to everyone for free. If you pay for Google One, AI mode lets you toggle between advanced models, including Gemini 3 Pro, which generates an interactive UI to answer queries. Up until now, Google has avoided showing ads in AI mode because it made the experience more compelling to users.

Nano Banana Pro is an updated version of the Nano Banana image generator, originally launched in August and already one of the fastest image-creation tools available. Built on Gemini 3 Pro, the new version promises better reasoning, more consistent image results and clearer text generation inside AI-created images. Google said the upgrade addresses a long-standing challenge in AI imaging: generating legible text. With Gemini 3's enhanced reasoning engine, Nano Banana Pro produces more accurate typography and better contextual understanding inside visual outputs.

Google just took the wraps off Nano Banana Pro (Gemini 3 Pro Image), its improved image generation and editing model built on Gemini 3 Pro that promises to "turn your visions into studio-quality designs with unprecedented control, flawless text rendering, and enhanced world knowledge." That's a step up from those hyperrealistic 3D figurines that caused the original image model to go viral in September, shortly after its launch. Best of all, it's free to try globally starting today inside the Gemini app by selecting "Create image" with the "Thinking" model.

Google has officially unveiled Gemini 3 Pro, its new state of the art LLM with record-breaking scores across almost every AI benchmark. The new model is intended to improve every Google service that uses Gemini, including its dedicated app, coding tools, and AI in search. Google stated that Gemini 3 Pro is much better at handling requests in their intended context and providing useful answers that don't resort to flattery. The model debuted in the number one spot across text, WebDev, and vision in , with Google having Gemini 3 Pro is the "best model in the world for complex multimodal understanding".
