Like most image generators, it didn’t pass the piano keyboard test. (Black keys are wrong.) https://aistudio.google.com/app/prompts?state=%7B%22ids%22:%...
or my "hands with palms facing down" test.... no matter how hard I try it just can't get open hands, palms down.

I guess the vast majority of images have the palms the other way, that this biases the output. It's like how we misinterpret images to generate optical illusions, because we're expecting valid 3D structures (Escher's staircases, say).

[Plows] are supposed to set us all free. Yet, so far all the tech companies have done is eliminate the jobs of the lowest-paid people ([field hands]) and transfer that money to landowners. Yay.
If you can't understand the difference, perhaps consult one of your AI chat overlords.

I tested it against Flux Pro Kontext (also image editing) and while it's a very different style and approach I overall like Flux better. More focus on image consistency, adjusts the lighting correctly, fixes contradictions in the image.
I've been testing it against Flux Pro Kontext for several weeks. I would say it beats Flux in a majority of tests, but Flux still surprises from time-to-time. Banana definitely isn't the best 100% of the time -- it falls a bit short of that. Evolution, not revolution.

Please pardon me since I don't know if this is satirical or not. I'd wish if you could clarify it. Because if this is real, then the world is cooked if not, then the fact that I think that It might be real but the only reason I believe its a joke is because you are on hackernews so I think that either you are joking or the tech has gotten so convincing that even people on hackernews (which I hold to a fair standard)…
There are a lot of people on the internet, and every individual on the internet is in a unique situation. Chances are some of them are very likely to be persuaded by a scam which seems obvious to you. Parent’s story is very believable, even if parent made this particular story up (which I personally don‘t think is the case) this has probably happened to somebody.
If they aren't joking, I apologize.

I got scammed similarly (although $10, because I tested first), because 1. it was on YouTube, on a channel called "SpaceX" with verified logo 2. with hundreds of thousands of viewers live 3. with a believable speech from Mr. Musk standing next to its rockets (and knowing his interest in cryptocurrencies). This happened as I was genuinely searching for the actual live stream of SpaceX. I am ashamed, even more so becau…
I am flabbergasted that you both get scammed. I would understand if this was two years ago, but now? Do people really not know about these scams? I can already see down votes coming for victim blaming, but this is to me really shocking. Notice that there isn't "tell hn: don't get scammed by deep fake crypto Elon" because people who usually posts also consider this general knowledge. That's why it's so effective I gue…
The point of my message was to "tell hn: it could happen to people in this community".
Half the time I ask Gemini to generate some image it claims it doesn't have the capability. And in general I've felt it's so hard to actually use the features Google announce? Like, a third of them is in one product, some in another which I can't use, and no idea what or where I should pay to get access. So confusing.

Would you consider writing a blog post about this experience? I'm incredibly interested in learning more details about how this unfolded.
I think the comment is a joke. Their bio is satirical at least :)
What about the bio is satirical? I'm pretty sure that's sincere too.
I've updated the GenAI Image comparison site (which focuses heavily on strict text-to-image prompt adherence) to reflect the new Google Gemini 2.5 Flash model (aka nano-banana). https://genai-showdown.specr.net This model gets 8 of the 12 prompts correct and easily comes within striking distance of the best-in-class models Imagen and gpt-image-1 and is a significant upgrade over the old Gemini Flash 2.0 model. The re…
Came into this thread looking for this post. It's a great way to compare prompt adherence across models. Have you considered adding editing capabilities in a similar way given the recent trend of inpainting-style prompting?
