Google tipped to bring an annotation feature to Gemini’s images

Google is developing an annotation feature for its Gemini platform that will allow users to write or draw on generated images before downloading them. This feature is expected to enable users to annotate images with text and drawings, providing a personalized touch. Additionally, there may be a "resubmission" option that allows users to make specific adjustments to the AI's output without rephrasing their requests. Earlier this year, Google integrated native image editing capabilities into Gemini, enabling users to modify AI-generated images and their own photographs. The anticipated annotation feature is designed to enhance user interaction with AI outputs. Google also recently unveiled the Nano Banana Pro model, which improves accuracy and content richness in image generation, potentially supporting the upcoming annotation capabilities.

Insane Gemini 3 Pro demand forces Google to cap access

Google has changed the access parameters for its Gemini 3 Pro and Nano Banana Pro image generation tools. Users of Gemini 3 Pro can now submit a variable number of prompts daily instead of the previous limit of five, depending on server demand. The Nano Banana Pro has reduced its daily free image generation from three to two. These changes were not officially announced but were noted on an updated support page. Free users will revert to Google’s Fast model upon reaching the new limits. Additionally, NotebookLM is facing capacity challenges, leading to temporary restrictions on advanced tools like Infographics and Slide Decks for both free and Pro subscribers. The new limits may significantly affect users who rely on Gemini 3 Pro for professional tasks.

How to remix images in Google Messages

Google Messages has introduced a feature called Remix, launched in November 2025, which allows users to create remixed images using the Nano Banana image-generation model. This opt-in feature requires users to accept terms and conditions and is available only to those aged 18 and older. Users can modify or generate new visuals directly within the app by selecting a photo, long-pressing it, and using the Remix button. The feature is compatible across devices, enabling friends to view and respond to remixed images.

Google is integrating Nano Banana right into its app’s search bar

The Google app is set to integrate an image generation feature powered by Nano Banana, allowing users to create images directly from the search bar. Users can access this feature by tapping the search bar, selecting the plus icon, and entering prompts to generate images. This functionality is similar to a feature introduced in Chrome Canary for Android but is now available in the Google app. The feature is confirmed to be live in Google app version 16.47.49.ve.arm64, following earlier indications from an APK teardown that it was being tested.

Microsoft’s head of AI doesn’t understand why people don’t like AI, and I don’t understand why he doesn’t understand because it’s pretty obvious

Mustafa Suleyman, Microsoft's AI CEO, expressed surprise at the skepticism towards generative AI tools, noting a lack of enthusiasm for advancements that enable fluent conversations with AI. Microsoft is developing "agentic" services, with Pavan Davuluri stating that the operating system is evolving into an agentic OS. Critics have raised concerns about the rapid deployment of generative AI models, citing instances of inaccuracies in performance, such as a chatbot misidentifying geographical locations. There are also ethical concerns regarding the use of copyrighted material for training AI systems and the commercialization of AI technology prioritizing profit over responsible development. The tech industry is at a crucial juncture, emphasizing the need for caution and ethical practices in the evolution of AI.

Nano Banana goes Pro with refined design consistency and accuracy in the Gemini app

Google has launched the Nano Banana Pro, an upgraded version of its image generation tool, now called Gemini 3 Pro Image. This new tool enhances user experience by producing more accurate and visually engaging images, featuring context-rich visuals and improved text legibility. Users can adjust angles and focus for greater control over their creations. The rollout begins on November 20 within the Gemini app. Nano Banana Pro allows seamless merging of up to 14 images and introduces "creative controls" for precise image manipulation. The original Nano Banana remains available for users seeking a simpler experience, with the Pro version accessible to consumers and students, offering a limited free quota and higher limits for subscribers. Since its launch in late August, Nano Banana has attracted 10 million new users and generated over 200 million images.

Evicting Copilot: The Insider’s Guide to Purging AI from Windows 11

Microsoft's Windows 11 has introduced Copilot, an AI assistant aimed at enhancing productivity, but it has faced criticism from users concerned about privacy and resource usage. Copilot offers features like document summarization and image generation, but some users have labeled it an unwelcome presence. During the March 2025 Patch Tuesday, some users experienced Copilot being inadvertently uninstalled. Privacy concerns and performance issues have led many to seek ways to disable or remove Copilot, with methods including hiding the Copilot button, using Group Policy Editor, editing the Windows Registry, and uninstalling the app through Settings or PowerShell commands. In corporate environments, IT administrators can disable Copilot using Intune or Group Policy. Users have reported that Windows updates can reinstall Copilot, prompting them to disable automatic updates or block related domains. Recent user sentiment indicates growing fatigue with AI features, and there is potential for Microsoft to introduce easier opt-out options in future updates.

Windows Is Becoming An Operating System For AI Agents

Microsoft Windows is evolving to incorporate AI agents that act autonomously, resembling digital coworkers. This shift is facilitated by the Model Context Protocol (MCP), which standardizes agent interactions with tools and data sources, ensuring secure access to system resources. Windows introduces an on-device registry of "agent connectors" for functionalities like file access and system settings, managed through an OS-level proxy that oversees identity, permissions, consent, and audit logging. The initial connectors focus on File Explorer and System Settings, defining clear capabilities and restrictions for agents. A transparent consent model allows users to manage permissions easily, promoting a user-friendly experience. The introduction of an Agent Workspace provides a dedicated environment for agents, ensuring they operate independently and with least-privileged access. Security measures include signed connectors and a standardized proxy for authentication and auditing, enabling visibility into agent actions. Windows is also expanding on-device AI processing with APIs for various functionalities, allowing agents to leverage local models securely. While Windows is not becoming an agent-first operating system, it is establishing a framework for human and agent interactions, positioning itself as a safe environment for AI operations. The foundational elements for this evolution include standard interfaces, clear permissions, isolated environments, and system-level observability.
