@mikefutia Banana

Nano Banana + n8n is legitimately insane 🤯 Google's Nano Banana creates studio-quality static ads. But manually generating variations one-by-one takes forever. This n8n automation generates 1,000+ ad variations in minutes. Fully automated. Perfect for DTC brands & media buyers who need fresh creative for testing without hiring designers. Here's the problem: You need 50+ ad variations to test angles, but Nano Banana only outputs one image at a time. Manually uploading and tweaking prompts for each variation kills hours. This n8n automation solves it: → Upload ONE product image via n8n form → OpenAI Vision analyzes your product automatically → AI generates custom image prompts (you choose quantity: 50, 100, 1000+) → Nano Banana creates static ad images in bulk → All images auto-stored in Box for instant access No manual prompting. No designer bottlenecks. No waiting on agencies. What you get: → Hundreds of unique ad variations from one upload → Different angles, backgrounds, compositions → Production-ready static ads → Perfect for testing creative on Meta/TikTok Built 100% in n8n.

I need someone to explain what’s happening with this camera look this is so good

In 1983, Ritz-Carlton did the unthinkable: They gave every employee the power to spend $2000 without approval. Most thought this was a HUGE risk. But 40 years later, this one rule has revolutionized luxury hospitality forever. Here's the story behind the famous $2000 rule🧵:

Announcing The Stargate Project The Stargate Project is a new company which intends to invest $500 billion over the next four years building new AI infrastructure for OpenAI in the United States. We will begin deploying $100 billion immediately. This infrastructure will secure American leadership in AI, create hundreds of thousands of American jobs, and generate massive economic benefit for the entire world. This project will not only support the re-industrialization of the United States but also provide a strategic capability to protect the national security of America and its allies. The initial equity funders in Stargate are SoftBank, OpenAI, Oracle, and MGX. SoftBank and OpenAI are the lead partners for Stargate, with SoftBank having financial responsibility and OpenAI having operational responsibility. Masayoshi Son will be the chairman. Arm, Microsoft, NVIDIA, Oracle, and OpenAI are the key initial technology partners. The buildout is currently underway, starting in Texas, and we are evaluating potential sites across the country for more campuses as we finalize definitive agreements. As part of Stargate, Oracle, NVIDIA, and OpenAI will closely collaborate to build and operate this computing system. This builds on a deep collaboration between OpenAI and NVIDIA going back to 2016 and a newer partnership between OpenAI and Oracle. This also builds on the existing OpenAI partnership with Microsoft. OpenAI will continue to increase its consumption of Azure as OpenAI continues its work with Microsoft with this additional compute to train leading models and deliver great products and services. All of us look forward to continuing to build and develop AI—and in particular AGI—for the benefit of all of humanity. We believe that this new step is critical on the path, and will enable creative people to figure out how to use AI to elevate humanity.

@IAmAaronWill Wise words

Low reach is a problem. You could have 1,000,000 followers and still only have 1% of that million see your posts. But you can fix it. Leave as many comments as you can per day. X has a social algo, meaning the more you use the platform as intended, the more it'll show you.

@haque_design Hi Aziz I have work for you. Please check linkedIn or bechance where I messaged you.

Not quite what I was expecting from @levelsio #interiorAI Tried the virtual staging to get a Scandinavian bedroom... ended up losing my window and no furniture added.

@AstronomyCast @fcain @starstryder Really cranking up the ads. Might have to go for premium tier as it’s become quite bad.

We are 20minutes from the start of Season 18! Join @fcain & @starstryder as we look back at this super weird summer.

Starbucks annual sales is ~$40B across 37k+ stores. At such scale, it’s very profitable to shave a few seconds off each order. Per Bloomberg, Starbucks would make an extra ~$900m a year if each store served 5 extra patrons per day. That’s why Starbucks is spending $450m on a new bar setup called Siren System (video below), where the key ingredients — dairy, pumps, caffeine, ice — are placed in a new optimized counter. Take a Mocha Frappuccino: ▫️Under the existing system, it takes 16 steps and 87 seconds ▫️Under Siren System, it will be 14 steps and 36 seconds. There are currently 383 billion potential drink combinations at Starbucks. And orders have gotten so ridiculously elaborate, that the average wait time is 5 minutes. Why does Starbucks put up with the extra? Cause “extras” on the order are worth $1B a year. For people like me — who just want a simple black Trenta iced coffee — it’s kinda annoying. The Siren System will be in 40% of US stores by 2026. Can’t wait for the full rollout to more efficiently put caffeine down my skull.

Incredible how one artist, @MrUgleh created a new branch of AI art 🌀 Say what you want, but this is creative, novel, and endless. Incredible to see the community pick this up so fast Below are some more examples and how to do it yourself 🙌🏻

@chamath @toosmart What’s your estimate of the percentage of Target employees participating in stock options or profit sharing?

@toosmart have you heard of stock options, profit sharing? if not, i can understand your liberal use of these specific emojis. good luck.

Imagine you own 1% of Apple. What this means, in its most basic sense, is that by putting up 1% of the capital, you own 1% of all of their current and future profits. That is a fair exchange and it’s well understood. But if instead, after your money was invested, their goals changed and you didn’t own 1% of their maximum profits any more but rather 1% of some lesser profit (or, even worse, no profit at all) along with a 1% share of Apple’s efforts on student debt reform or the Russia-Ukraine war, you may be confused and think this wasn’t what you signed up for. Replace Apple with Target, and student debt reform/Russia-Ukraine with Gay Pride Month and the customer and shareholder reaction from Target is below. Target’s billions of revenue loss and market cap losses add to the tens of billions of dollars already lost by Disney and Bud because of a similar market and customer reaction. Why is this happening? Do customers and shareholders not care about social issues? The message being delivered by customers and shareholders to public companies seems to be that they do not want companies to take social positions. They want companies to exist to maximize value for customers and maximize profits for shareholders. So who is pushing for companies to take positions on politics and social issues if not customers and shareholders? Employees? A non obvious conclusion that these customers and shareholders may see and companies and employees may not yet is that other organizational models exist (foundations, non-profits, B-corps) to take more effective stands on political and social issues than a C-corp. And if a company can maximize their enterprise value, it can also enrich employees who can then funnel more of their money than they could otherwise into these causes as they saw fit. A separate implication of this is that customers and shareholders seem to not want companies to be Swiss Army knives and do everything. They want specialists who are very good at one thing. Boards and CEOs are probably formulating their all company emails now…

@Lauramaywendel Exact same tasks I did two days ago it now cannot complete (extracting list of ingredients from a recipe URL).

Was GPT4 just lobotomized? It responds to queries a lot faster but seems to perform a lot worse than just a few weeks ago (not following instructions properly, making very obvious coding mistakes etc) Quite likely they replaced it with a distilled smaller model to save costs?

@creditkarma too many emails.

@ENowoslawski AI

I made a loom video of how you can use Open AI to mass personalize your outreach. Comment "AI" if you want the loom. I'll dm it to you then.
