Google launches Nano Banana 2 Lite for rapid AI image generation

Google has launched Nano Banana 2 Lite, a new AI image generation model that produces images in approximately four seconds, significantly faster and cheaper than previous iterations. This model is optimized for rapid ideation and high-volume workflows. Alongside this, Google has also expanded the availability of Gemini Omni Flash, a model capable of video generation and editing via API, enabling users to create animated videos from static images.
