How are viral trends different from educational and commercial uses of LLM image generation and editing? A privacy-preserving descriptive analysis

arXiv:2611.08749v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Gemini's Nano Banana models, first introduced in late 2025, led to a shift in the capabilities and use of image generation and editing. We utilize Urania, a Google-developed framework for generating insights about LLM chatbot interactions with rigorous differential privacy (DP) guarantees, to analyze use cases and intents, techniques and ways of prompting, without ever looking at a single image or individual prompt. We select a subsample of 2.1M co

We utilize Urania, a Google-developed framework for generating insights about LLM chatbot interactions with rigorous differential privacy (DP) guarantees, to analyze use cases and intents, techniques and ways of prompting, without ever looking at a single image or individual prompt. We select a subsample of 2.1M conversations in early 2026 which utilized Nano Banana models, into roughly 800 clusters in five categories: (1) Social & Viral Sharing, (2) Brand & Marketing Collateral, (3) Educational & Technical Information Media, (4) Product Visualizations & E-commerce, and (5) Architectural & Spatial Designs. We then compare these clusters on 21 features of use, measuring aspects of prompts' (a) editing techniques, (b) artistic style requests, (c) composition, and (d) chatbot interactions. This allows us to describe a baseline of how people are using image generation and editing tools for different use cases---(including growing and emergent use cases which were not possible before Nano Banana)---in a privacy-preserving manner. arXiv-issued DOI via DataCite (pending registration) From: Marika Swanberg [view email] [v1] Thu, 5 Nov 2026 21:56:29 UTC (6,049 KB)

We audit three remedy-decision systems using sociolinguistic rewrites of US consumer financial complaints that are instructed to preserve every fact: two generative LLMs that return a single label (GPT-4o-mini and GPT-5-mini) and a probabilistic "System One" model that returns a distriarXiv cs.CY (Computers and Society)

We examine how the prevalence and content of work activities in online job postings change in association with activity-level measures of AI exposure, derived from Copilot and Claude usage. To enable systematic comparisons, we develop a pipeline that extracts the responsibilities from job adarXiv cs.CY (Computers and Society)

These interactions generate digital traces, prompting efforts to infer mental health and psychosocial states. As large language models become more capable of reasoning about conversations and interpersonal dynamics, a fundamental question remains nonetheless: what can models actually "know" about an individual's psychological experience farXiv cs.CY (Computers and Society)

However, identity formation in the wake of such empowerment remains understudied. We use an autoethnography to understand identity formation in the context of solo game development as a bioinformatics educator.
