This is the gpt 4 moment for image editing models. Nano banana aka gemini 2.5 flash is insanely good. It made a 171 elo point jump in lmarena!

Just search nano banana on Twitter to see the crazy results. An example. https://x.com/D_studioproject/status/1958019251178267111

I've been testing it for several weeks. It can produce results that are truly epic, but it's still a case of rerolling the prompt a dozen times to get an image you can use. It's not God. It's definitely an enormous step though, and totally SOTA.

If you compare to the amount of effort required in Photoshop to achieve the same results, still a vast improvement

Why would you compare it to Photoshop? If you compare it to other tools in the same category, of image generation, you will find models like Flux and Qwen do much better.
