Just had an interesting hallucination from Gemini. I asked it to modify an infographic and it thought it did. It thought it invoked nano banana and sent me text of the Gemini prompt that the image was generating in the background.
However it was just plain text without the actual Gemini logo and formatting so I knew it was hallucinating.
Interesting.
