As of October 10, 2026, the Gemini agent is in private preview with no list price. Google plans no add-on fee, but agent usage is expected to be metered.

As of October 10, 2026, US college students get Google AI Pro free for a year and students elsewhere mostly get AI Plus free; redeem by December 31, 2026.

Mostly no. As of October 10, 2026, free Gemini accounts get Nano Banana 2, Pro redo needs a paid plan, Flow's free access is disputed, and the API is paid.

Google has never explained Gemini's Something went wrong (1155). Two quick tests show whether it's a Google-side wave, your account or your browser.

As of October 10, 2026, paid Gemini API usage runs on Prepay credits. Postpay accounts must switch by their notice date; a $0 balance returns HTTP 402.

As of October 10, 2026, GPT-5.4 has no free API tier. Paid orgs that share data with OpenAI can get up to 1M free tokens a day; otherwise it's $2.50/$15 per 1M.

As of October 10, 2026, gpt-image-2 is not deprecated, but OpenAI recommends GPT Image 2.5 Sunburst or Flare for new integrations, at the same token prices.

As of October 10, 2026, the free official option is ChatGPT Images 2.5 on the Free plan, downloaded with Save. The OpenAI API has no free image tier.

The key is free in Google AI Studio, but Nano Banana Pro images need billing: prepay at least $5, then call gemini-3-pro-image at $0.134 per 1K or 2K image.

No Google route runs Nano Banana signed out. With a free Google account, the Gemini app gives Nano Banana 2 at 1K with rolling limits and no announced end date.

As of October 9, 2026, Google's game-making Playground is open only to US users 18+. Free users play now and wait to create; Google AI plans create at once.

Upload a clear reference photo, ask Nano Banana for a sculpted collectible, then refine the face, material, pose, or packaging in the same chat. Start with the copyable prompt below.

Free starter credits buy a Nano Banana Pro 4K image only when the account can select Pro at 4K and its balance covers that setting. Google's direct Pro API is paid; free Gemini drafts and Flow credits have separate rules.

The Free tier's $100/month is a usage ceiling, not credit. Only a credit grant in your account or eligible data-sharing daily tokens make requests free.

Start with the skill that completes your recurring job: summarize for long source material, gog for Google Workspace, or github for repository status. Web research and browser work may already have the tools they need. Check what your agent can use before installing another skill.

Choose Nano Banana Pro in Artlist AI Toolkit’s Image prompt, start with one 2K output, and check the cost before generating. Pro currently uses 160 credits at 1K or 2K and 280 at 4K; Unlimited depends on your plan’s exact model list.

A local path alone grants no access. Upload a selected document, use Work with approved local computer access, or open the checkout in local Codex or Claude Code. Then verify the actual file version and permitted actions.

Yes, Codex is included in ChatGPT Plus. OpenAI estimates 15–150 GPT-6 Sol messages per five hours, weekly limits may apply, and credits extend usage.

ChatGPT Free allows 3 file uploads a day, and each image counts as one. Go, Plus and Pro get up to 80 files every 3 hours, 20 MB per image, lower at peak times.

As of October 8, 2026, ChatGPT Plus text chat is unlimited under abuse guardrails. Thinking, uploads, images and Codex are capped; credits cover Codex and Work.

Plus is $20 a month; the API bills separately. A 10-turn chat on gpt-6-sol, the model behind GPT-6 in Plus, costs about $0.13. Long threads and Codex suit Plus.

Go ($8) covers everyday chat, Plus ($20) adds GPT-6 thinking, and Pro at $100, $200 or $500 pays off only when Plus limits keep stopping real work.

Pro 100, 200 and 500 have no five-hour Codex limit, but an included allowance and weekly limits still apply. Settings → Usage shows what's left and the reset.

ChatGPT Pro's everyday chat, uploads and images are unlimited only under abuse guardrails. GPT-6 Pro, Work and Codex, and upload rates stay capped on all tiers.
