Get less contradictory regulations, then.

In EU they forbid us newspapers from non-approved countries, impose cookies banners everywhere, and now block porn. Soon they will forbid some AI models which have not passed EU censorship ("safety") validation. Because we all know that governments (or even Google with Android) are better at knowing what is the safest for you.

An image seems to be 256 tokens looking the AIstudio tab, so you can generate 3906,25 images per 1M tokens, that seems a lot if I'm not wrong in some ways.

Edit: the blog post is now loading and reports "1290 output tokens per image" even though on the AI studio it said something different.

Very impressive. I have to say while I'm deeply impressed by these text to image models, there's a part of me that's also wary of their impact. Just look at the comments beneath the average Facebook post.

Not to victim-shame or anything, but that sounds more like more than one safety mechanism failed, the convincing tech only being a rather small part of it?

This presumes that you're okay with giving the real Elon your wallet but not a fake Elon, but why?

FYI, this is the famed nano-banana model which has been now renamed to gemini-2.5-flash-image-preview in LMArena.

Wow I hate the ‘voice’ in that article - big if true though.

“Internal server error Sorry, there seems to be an error. Please try again soon.” Never thought I would ever see this on a google owned websites!

A cheap quip would be "it's vibe-coded", but that might actually very well be the case at this point!
