On September 16th, Tulsa Area United Way mobilized thousands of volunteers for an annual Day of Caring. During the community-wide event, volunteers from companies and organizations from across the Tulsa area dedicated themselves to performing both in-person and remote community service projects throughout the area. At YST, over 100 volunteers from 8 different companies worked throughout the day making our campus and offsite facilities sparkle.

Tried out Nano Banana 2 for generating images from text descriptions. The updated version feels more responsive and the output quality has improved noticeably. Works well across different styles from photorealistic to illustrated.
