All right, guys, Gemini just came out with Nano Banana Pro 2, its latest and greatest model.
00:07
it's apparently a lot better and I just wanted to try a couple of different examples here with you guys.
00:13
Happy Saturday.
00:14
We're gonna make this a very quick and short video.
00:16
I already got some images up on the screen here.
00:19
We're gonna try four different use cases.
00:21
Okay?
00:22
The first one we're looking at just this apartment building here.
00:24
All right?
00:24
And I want to say.
00:25
Whoops.
00:26
I want to say, let's change it to this version here.
00:30
I'm going to say I only have $20,000 to spend on the exterior renovation of this apartment building.
00:45
Can you show me what that looks like, please?
00:53
Cool little example there, loading Nano Banana too, of just what's possible depending on your budget.
00:58
So we're kind of reverse engineering it there.
01:00
Now here's another one.
01:02
Okay, we have this vacant land in the middle of nowhere and we want to put together a site plan of some sort.
01:09
Let's assume we're buying it.
01:10
We're home builders.
01:11
We want to map it out.
01:12
Okay.
01:12
Okay.
01:13
we're buying this site to develop a residential subdivision in Victorville.
01:24
Let's just say California.
01:27
Okay, Please prepare a site, plan for, for us.
01:35
Assuming 5,000 square foot lots and four homes to the acre, the site is 40 acres.
01:49
you're a 30 year engineer who has done this a thousand times.
01:57
We're getting a little crazy with it.
01:59
please only use the green outline site.
02:07
Okay.
02:07
Whoops.
02:08
I forgot to change the model to pro, but that's okay.
02:11
Let's just check in on our apartment building here while a full run.
02:14
Here's a breakdown of what you could accomplish.
02:16
give me the rendering.
02:18
I guess I forgot to ask.
02:20
Whoops.
02:20
And it's already working on this conceptual site plan here.
02:22
Let's just give it a second.
02:24
All right, so we got our conceptual site plan right here.
02:27
That was a really good job.
02:29
nice, really nice.
02:30
Emergency access only.
02:32
Okay, we're gonna need some dedications right there.
02:34
Okay.
02:34
cool.
02:35
Look at two points, Ingress, egress.
02:36
Beautiful.
02:37
You need to have that.
02:39
Okay.
02:39
A little community center retention basin.
02:41
This is a well thought out plan here, I think.
02:44
Not bad at all.
02:45
That's pretty kick ass.
02:46
Let's just see.
02:47
Okay.
02:48
And here's our twenty thousand dollar renovation.
02:50
That seems about right.
02:51
And so let's see.
02:52
So exterior painting, signage, replacement, central feature update, landscaping overhaul and then new railings.
02:59
Okay.
03:00
Now what if we had a 50k budget?
03:07
Let's just try a couple more here.
03:08
So we got this site as well.
03:09
Right.
03:09
Let's assume we want to build an apartment building in the excess sites for listed.
03:13
We found it.
03:13
Can't speak.
03:14
This site is listed.
03:15
We found it on Crexy.
03:17
Let's let's assume we want to build an apartment building where there's excess space.
03:21
Let's see how good of a job it could do here.
03:23
guess you could like, edit these images.
03:25
okay.
03:26
We.
03:26
Let's say something like we are looking at acquiring this site.
03:33
It has a ton of excess land.
03:38
It's in Los Angeles.
03:40
I need your help to come up with a rendering.
03:48
where there is excess land for an apartment building, let's assume three stories.
03:58
Okay.
03:58
We're going to get pretty specific here and see if I could find.
04:00
Follow instructions.
04:01
Let's assume three stories.
04:03
and surface level parking.
04:07
Keep within the red outline and in the parking lot.
04:14
Assume you're an architect.
04:17
Cool.
04:18
Let's just check in on our other image here.
04:20
All right, cool.
04:20
So we had a 50k budget now and it looks a lot nicer.
04:25
Wow.
04:25
That's pretty cool.
04:26
Landscaping overhaul.
04:27
Good stuff.
04:28
maybe.
04:28
Let's try.
04:29
Can we put a retail site in the corner, on the corner location of Bellflower and Palmdale and re engineer our subdivision.
04:47
Get a little crazy with it.
04:49
Wow.
04:49
Okay.
04:50
Look at that.
04:51
That little apartment building there.
04:53
Now let's see what the before looks like.
04:55
Yeah.
04:55
Come on.
04:56
There we go.
04:57
Okay.
04:57
Nice.
04:58
And he came up with this nice three stories, surface level parking.
05:01
That's pretty cool.
05:03
Look at this.
05:03
Now we got retail.
05:04
So we got a neighborhood retail center right here, plus a subdivision.
05:08
That's awesome.
05:08
That's really awesome.
05:09
Let's try another one.
05:10
All right.
05:11
we're looking at an aerial view of a development site.
05:19
It's the northwest or it's the.
05:22
I'm gonna say Westerly.
05:23
It's the Westerly site.
05:27
with vacant land.
05:31
We want to build a drive through, in and out.
05:35
Let's make sure there's not an in and out already.
05:37
Yep.
05:37
The drive thru, in and out restaurant on that site.
05:42
Could you prepare a site plan and renderings for me to see, please?
05:50
Assume you're the head architect at in and Out.
05:57
And let's just change it to pro.
05:58
I'm not sure if the Pro versus Fast for image generation.
06:01
Enter image generation.
06:03
I don't know why I can't speak.
06:05
Only had one beer last night.
06:06
I'm not sure if that makes much of a difference.
06:08
Formulating the Plan.
06:11
can you do two stories instead of three?
06:18
Making some changes.
06:19
Now.
06:20
Can we get some close up renderings in different views?
06:30
how about.
06:32
Can we.
06:35
Produce a very budget friendly renovation concept, please?
06:43
Not sure.
06:43
Let's try that.
06:44
Wow, look at that.
06:45
Look at that little in and out right there.
06:47
That's awesome.
06:48
Wow.
06:49
Okay, let's just see.
06:50
Yeah, look at that.
06:51
Nano Banana 2 is awesome.
06:53
on.
06:54
Not sure why that's not clicking.
06:55
There we go.
06:56
Okay.
06:56
Yeah.
06:57
Look at that.
06:57
Great in and out location.
06:58
All right.
06:58
In and out.
06:59
Site looks great.
07:00
Here's the close up renderings of our subdivision.
07:03
Looks about right for the area.
07:05
Pretty cool.
07:05
Pretty cool.
07:06
And then we asked for a budget friendly renovation concept.
07:09
Look at that.
07:10
That's pretty budget.
07:11
And it looks good too.
07:12
Okay, now what if we did something like this.
07:16
We're building this new in n out in Victorville, California.
07:24
Can we please create a teaser video to show our investors how great the concept is?
07:35
So let's give it a go.
07:37
Computer's acting a little funky right now, guys.
07:39
A little funky just be my WI fi being a little slow.
07:44
But again, building this new in and out in Victorville, California, can we please create a teaser video to show our investors how great the concept is?
07:52
So it's going to take a few minutes.
07:54
we will check back when that's done.
07:57
I don't know if the video generating capabilities, improve with Nano Banana or if that's a totally separate thing.
08:03
So we're going to see in just a moment.
08:05
All right, so video is ready, I think.
08:08
Let's give it a go.
08:09
Maybe not.
08:10
Still loading.
08:11
It's ready.
08:12
Let's give it another second.
08:13
Okay, let's try it.
08:16
yeah.
08:23
yeah.
08:33
The second version of the video.
08:40
But I think we could do better with a better prompt.
08:42
That's pretty cool though.
08:46
I love that.
08:47
I don't know if you guys could hear the little background music too, but it's amazing.
08:50
Anyways, super impressed with, Nano Banana Pro too.
08:54
really exciting stuff.
08:55
And a lot of these other platforms are going to update, from nano Banana Pro 1 to 2, including Manus, which I'm excited about and, looking forward to giving a try.
09:05
So definitely give it a try.
