Google released an update to Nano Banana yesterday named Nano Banana Pro and it is super impressive as an image generation tool. But it is also incorporated into Google Search via Google AI Mode and available within Google Ads to help you make ad creatives. Plus, Nano Banana can be used to make you creative content.
As a reminder, Nano Banana is in Google Lens since mid-October. But now it is Nano Banana Pro and also in AI Mode and Google Ads.
Nano Banana In AI Mode
Google said, "For AI Mode in Search, Nano Banana Pro is available in the U.S. for Google AI Pro and Ultra subscribers."
Rajan Patel from Google posted on X "Today, Nano Banana is going Pro โ and itโs available in Search today, via AI Mode ๐." Nick Fox from Google added on X, "Shipping in Search this week is bananas! Bringing Nano Banana Pro - the worldโs best image model - to Search on Day 1! In AI Mode for AI Pro & Ultra subs in the US. Rolling out Nano Banana in Lens & AI Mode to over a dozen new markets."

Nano Banana In Google Ads
Also, Google Ads is getting access to Nano Banana Pro. You can use this to create ad creatives for your Google Ads campaigns.
Ginny Marvin, Google's Ads Liaison, said on X, "Nano Banana Pro offers smarter creative capabilities to help you create, edit and test with greater velocity. For advertisers, this means:"
- Better brand alignment: Advanced reasoning to better understand your prompts, brand guidelines and reference images to help ensure critical brand consistency and authenticity across your campaigns.
- More creative control: Get granular control over details like lighting, camera angles, color grading, and background removal.
- Higher-quality output and multi-product showcasing: Generate professional-grade, high-resolution (1024x1024) images. Plus feature up to 5 products in a single generated scene โ great for retail bundle and cross promotions.
- Easier integration and testing: The workflow is now conversational. Ask for specific edits to an existing asset (e.g., "change the background to a snowy street") instead of rewriting the entire prompt. This makes testing a variety of new ideas a breeze.

Nano Banana Pro
Nano Banana also can create useful things for you, like infographics and stuff. Google wrote, "Nano Banana Pro doesnโt just create beautiful images, it also helps you create more helpful content. You can get accurate educational explainers to learn more about a new subject, like context-rich infographics and diagrams based on the content you provide or facts from the real world. Nano Banana Pro can also connect to Google Search's vast knowledge base to help you create a quick snapshot for a recipe or visualize real-time information like weather or sports."
I asked Glenn Gabe to make an info graphic showing the Google updates over the last two years and it did it:
Nano Banana Pro. Create an infographic for major Google algorithm updates over the past two years. Not bad, not bad at all... :) I like how it color-coded them and added icons for core, reviews, and spam. pic.twitter.com/2ALiynmLiV

I played around with it, and honestly, it is impressive:

Of course, it makes you wonder what types of controls are in place for content creators and where Nano Banana gets this information. Is this using Google-Extended or something else?
i assume it is extended, i saw your Qs and I am watching for a response...
