Google has officially rolled out a suite of powerful AI features for Chrome, cementing its position as the world's leading "AI-first" browser. Leveraging the on-device Gemini Nano model, Chrome now features advanced image generation and editing (codenamed Nano Banana), a persistent AI Sidebar assistant for deep research, and "Auto Browse" capabilities that automate tab management and information synthesis.

Stability AI has officially announced Diffusion Transformer 3.0 (DiT v3), the next evolution of its foundational image generation architecture. Building on the Multimodal Diffusion Transformer (MMDiT) framework that powered Stable Diffusion 3, DiT v3 introduces Unified Flow Matching, Dynamic Attention Scaling, and native multi-modal support for images, video, and 3D content. The architecture will serve as the backbone for Stable Diffusion 4 and marks Stability AI's most significant technical leap since abandoning U-Net in 2024.

Google is rolling out a major AI-first upgrade for Chrome, embedding Gemini into a persistent side panel and adding new “agentic browsing” capabilities called Auto Browse. The update also brings Nano Banana image transformation directly into the browser, letting users edit images on the fly with text prompts without downloading or switching tabs. Together, these features signal Google’s push to turn Chrome from a passive browser into an AI productivity layer for the modern web.

Tencent has officially open-sourced Hunyuan-DiT 3.0, its most advanced text-to-image generation model, making state-of-the-art image synthesis accessible to developers worldwide. Featuring enhanced photorealism, superior Chinese text rendering, and improved prompt understanding, this release positions Tencent as a major player in the open-source generative AI ecosystem alongside Stability AI and Black Forest Labs.
