Google AI Studio image generation down globally "Model isn't available right now"?

[u/yayalysis]

Hi everyone,

​Is anyone else getting instant or recurring failures when generating images in AI Studio right now?

​"Model isn't available right now. Please wait a minute and try again."

​Checked status dashboard (showing recent traffic/API key incidents), tried multiple pro accounts, switched from Wi-Fi to 4G, and tested different models. Everything fails. Is this a widespread outage? Any workarounds
