Did you ever think an AI-powered app would topple ChatGPT from its throne? Brace yourself, because Google Gemini’s AI generated newscast about its Nano-Banana trend is rewriting the rules of viral fame!

In a twist that’s left everyone from techies to TikTokers buzzing, Google Gemini has soared past OpenAI’s ChatGPT to claim the top spot on both the Apple App Store and Google Play Store. It's not just another chatbot update—this shift is powered by a wildly imaginative feature: the AI generated newscast about the Nano-Banana trend, which lets users transform basic selfies into jaw-dropping 3D figurine-style portraits.

You’ve seen these digital collectibles taking over your feed: hyper-detailed images that look like high-end figurines, complete with acrylic display stands and toy-like packaging. It’s as if Funko Pops and AI had a baby, and that baby’s gone viral. People aren’t just sharing these creations on Instagram and X (yep, that’s the new Twitter); they’re getting shoutouts from celebrities like Sonam Bajwa, and even politicians like Assam’s Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma and Goa’s CM Pramod Sawant are flexing their Nano-Banana figurines online.

This trend has become so hot that when TOI Tech peeked at the ‘Top Apps’ charts, Gemini had zoomed to number one, pushing Threads and ChatGPT down the ranks—a total reversal from just a few months ago when ChatGPT ruled with its own viral Ghibli-inspired image feature. The hype for Gemini’s AI generated newscast about making figurines is everywhere, and the FOMO is real.

The best part? This Nano-Banana magic is free for anyone with the Google Gemini app. Whether you’re a meme lord, influencer, or just want to see yourself as a plastic superstar, all you have to do is open Google Gemini or Google AI Studio, upload a solo selfie, paste a viral prompt—like “Create a 1/7 scale commercialised figurine…”—and hit generate. A few seconds later, you’re looking at your digital twin, ready to go viral. Google’s even encouraging users to share their creations far and wide and promises to feature the coolest ones for the whole world to see.

The era of AI generated newscast about personalized collectibles is officially here—and everyone wants in.
