요즘 Nano Banana Pro를 쓰고 있어요. Pro 버전은 더 복잡한 프롬프트를 잘 처리하고 결과물도 더 선명해요. 여전히 Gemini 기반이고요. 로컬 설정 없이 컨셉 아트나 스타일 실험하기 좋아요.
J'utilise Nano Banana Pro récemment. La version Pro gère les prompts plus complexes avec des résultats plus nets. Toujours basé sur Gemini. Parfait pour l'art conceptuel sans configuration locale.
