Learning LinkedIn as a super skill | Sophomore at Northeastern University

I’m a 21-year-old entrepreneur building an AI-powered startup to fix what we are not taught.

As a student, I saw a recurring gap — students had potential, but lacked the tools, confidence, and systems to convert it into careers. So I launched Degree2Destiny to bridge the space between education and employment, blending AI with mentorship and real-world skills.

In just 8 months of full-time operations, we've impacted 3000+ students through our CAN model (Communication, AI, Networking). I’ve spoken at the Grace Hopper Celebration, mentored 30+ peers as a  teaching assistant and built workshop programs now run across India and the U.S.

My next milestone? Scale D2D to impact 1 million students, become revenue-positive by year one post-grad, and launch our digital platform to help every student build their career with AI, not just a degree.

If you care about the future of education, youth empowerment, or want to collaborate on bold ideas — I’d love to connect. Let’s reimagine what student success can look like.

Anjali Laddha

I hit 5,000 followers on LinkedIn as a student.
And no, I didn’t have fancy credentials, elite networks, or a perfect content plan.

Here’s exactly how you can grow too:

1️⃣ Comment like a creator.
Thoughtful comments on big creators' posts get you seen faster than posting alone.

2️⃣ DM to build relationships, not ask for favors.
“Loved your post, here’s what it taught me..” goes way further than
“Can you please mentor me?”

3️⃣ Find people your age.
Your first real network comes from the students building right beside you.

4️⃣ Maintain relationships.
Reply to comments. Celebrate wins. Check in. Most people only show up when they need something, don’t be that person.

5️⃣ Start creating way earlier than you think.
99% of students consume.
1% create.
Guess who grows?

Tools like ChatGPT, Claude, NotebookLM make it easier than ever.
You just need to start.

If a student like me could do it…
so can you!

P.S: thank you so much for all the love you have shown me, upwards from here 💌

AI Trainer helping students + colleges turn degrees into careers 🚀 | Founder @Degree2Destiny | 4,000+ students & faculty trained | Author of CANnected 📘

i sent 50 "can i pick your brain?" messages on linkedin.
got 3 replies. all "i'm busy right now."

old approach:
"hi! i'd love to learn about your career journey."

new approach:
"saw your post on [topic] and it sparked a thought. i’ve been experimenting with [ai solution or insight] and here’s what i learned. sharing in case it’s useful."

no ask.
no pitch.
no pressure.
just value dropped in their inbox.

my response rate jumped from 6 percent to 47 percent.

because i stopped asking for time.
and started contributing something they could use.

the can model broke it down:
→ communication: lead with insight, not need
→ ai fluency: research before you reach out
→ networking: show what you’re building instead of asking for access
→ value: make your message helpful even if they never reply

3 of those conversations turned into mentorships.
1 became a client.

your network grows when you give people something worth responding to.
not another calendar invite.

master’s students ask me for career advice.
me. a 21-year-old still figuring things out.

and honestly? it feels weird.
i’m not an industry veteran. i don’t have decades of experience. half the time, i’m googling things right alongside them.

but they still reach out.
and i still show up.

because here’s the truth: they’re not asking because i have all the answers. they’re asking because mentorship is rare. the people who do have the answers are often too busy, too far removed, or too unreachable.

so i give what i can. honest advice. real talk about what’s worked, what hasn’t, and what i’m still learning.

it’s not perfect. but it’s something.
and that “something” shouldn’t have to come from someone who’s barely ahead.

here’s my ask:
if you’ve been in the industry for a while, if you’ve learned lessons the hard way, if you have 30 minutes a month to spare, please consider mentoring.

there are brilliant minds out there just looking for someone who believes in them.
someone who’ll take the call.
someone who’ll share the real story, not just the highlight reel.

the gap is real. so is the opportunity to fill it.

if you can mentor, let me know. let’s connect people who need guidance with people who can give it!

I turned 22 this weekend...

and between family games, cousins talking till 12 am and my parents planning everything even though half of us were sick, something clicked.

growing up isn’t boring. it’s just finally knowing what matters.

so here are the lessons that have shaped me,
consider this the cheat sheet i wish i had

1. thinking you need to hustle alone.
building in isolation kills momentum faster than failure.

2. waiting for clarity before starting.
clarity comes after action, never before.

3. saying yes to every opportunity.
focus is oxygen. distraction is free.

4. building without systems.
energy can kickstart a company, but systems scale it.

5. ignoring your health because “startup mode.”
no founder. no business.

6. chasing virality instead of trust.
views don’t pay you. trust does.

7. treating every problem like a personal flaw.
most issues are operational, not emotional.

8. not asking for help early.
mentors can save you 6 months of suffering with one call.

9. thinking revenue will magically come later.
sell early. sell ugly. sell imperfect.

10. building things nobody asked for.
talk to your users. again. and again.

11. underestimating how long consistency takes.
90 days of discipline beats 1 day of motivation.

12. making the team guess what you want.
communicate clearly or chaos will communicate for you.

13. overworking because you’re scared to slow down.
rest is not the enemy of ambition.

14. expecting friends to understand your journey.
they won’t. and that’s okay.

15. thinking funding solves everything.
execution > capital.

16. confusing movement with progress.
busy is easy. meaningful is hard.

17. hiding the messy middle.
your story matters more than you think.

18. postponing joy till the “big win.”
celebrate the small ones. they’re what actually keep you alive.

19. trying to be the expert too soon.
curiosity is a better strategy than confidence.

20. forgetting to document the journey.
your future self will thank you.

21. not protecting your creative energy.
your ideas are your edge. guard them.

22. thinking you have endless time with family.
you don’t. and building in india reminded me how lucky i am to celebrate birthdays with the people who raised me.

Which one hit you the hardest? Drop the number below.
And if you’re building something right now, save this. You’ll need it 🩷

p.s. we also hit 5k on LinkedIn. thank you so much 🫶🏼
(post coming tomorrow)

“You’re throwing your life away.”

That’s what they said when I left Boston mid-college to come back to India.

“You LEFT Northeastern?”
“You’re throwing away opportunities.”
“Just finish your degree first na.”

I came back anyway.

Woh kehte hai na, kuch toh log kahenge, logo ka kaam hai kehna. 🤷🏻‍♀️

From my bedroom in Kolkata:
→ Built a funded edtech startup
→ Spoke at Grace Hopper at 21
→ Impacted 4,000+ students
→ Won a global impact award 

Now? I split my time every 6 months between Boston and Kolkata.

Study. Startup. Repeat. ✈️

The same people who said I was “ruining my future”?
Sliding into my DMs asking how their kids can “do what I do.” 💀

Funny how “throwing your life away” becomes “so inspiring beta.”

What’s something you did that everyone said you’d regret? Tell me below👇

No alternative text description for this image

“You study International Business? But you work in AI!?"

I hear this so often I could put it on merch.

Here’s the real answer:
Your degree is a starting point. Your skills are the accelerator.

I didn’t study CS. I can’t code.
But I still built a career in AI because I focused on the things that actually move the needle:

1. Learn fast
 I treated AI tools like a language. Daily reps. Micro-experiments. Build → break → rebuild.

2. Solve real problems
Students didn’t need “AI theory.” They needed résumés rewritten, LinkedIn fixed, and interview prep in minutes. AI became the tool to deliver outcomes faster.

3. Communicate like a human
Most AI content is boring. I used my IB background to translate complex ideas into simple, relatable content. That’s why 4,000+ students trusted me.

4. Don’t wait for permission
If I waited for a “relevant” degree, I’d still be stuck in chapter one. I picked a lane, built proof, and let results speak.

Here’s the part people won’t say out loud:
They’re not shocked that I work in AI.
They’re shocked that I didn’t follow the script they followed.

If your degree doesn’t match your ambition, do this today:
→ Pick one problem you can solve with AI
→ Build a simple solution (demo > certificate)
→ Teach it to someone
→ Document it publicly
→ Iterate this for at least 2 months

Do this consistently and nobody will care what you studied.

They’ll only care what you can do.

Your degree is context. Your skills are currency.

What people think opportunity in India looks like:
→ English fluency
→ Metro city exposure
→ IIT/NIT pedigree
→ Perfect LinkedIn profile
→ Family connections

What 4,000 students taught me it actually is:
→ Curiosity that refuses to stay quiet
→ One laptop + patchy Wi-Fi + unstoppable hunger
→ A mentor who answers one hard question
→ The courage to send the first message
→ Knowing how to use AI better than your degree ever taught you

For a year, I have watched students from Bhubaneswar, Kanpur, Siliguri, Jaipur and dozens of “invisible” towns do what the system never expected from them.

They weren’t waiting for opportunity.
They were building it.
Inside hostels.
Inside shared rooms.
Inside cyber cafés.
Inside lives that were never designed for them to win.

And that’s when it hit me:

Talent in India isn’t top-tier.
It’s everywhere.
Opportunity isn’t democratic.
It’s uneven.

But when you give a student:
→ Communication skills
→ AI fluency
→ A chance to network beyond their pin codes

The entire map shifts.

4,000 students showed me one truth:
The future of India won’t be built by privilege.
It’ll be built by access.

And access can start anywhere, even in the smallest room, with the slowest internet, on the quietest street.

What part of “opportunity in India” have you misunderstood the most?

internships teach basics. evidence gets you hired.

here’s the part nobody admits:

internships teach communication, deadlines, teamwork. they're great for your first taste of real work.

but after the basics? another internship won’t make you stand out. and it definitely won’t guarantee a job.

once you know how to work with people, employers stop caring about “experience.”

they care about output.

can you build?
can you solve problems?
can you show skill without someone hand-holding you?

most students say:
“i can’t get interviews despite work experience.”
but their profile has nothing to click, nothing to use, nothing to trust.

the truth hurts:

if you already know how to communicate and show up, your next step isn’t another internship.

it’s evidence.

real projects. ai prototypes. mini apps. automations. case studies. live demos.

and then do what 99 percent never think of:

drop links to functioning apps on your linkedin.
let employers see what you can do, not what you claim on paper.

experience gets you started.
evidence gets you hired.

gen z would rather die than give a presentation
literally
73 percent of us fear public speaking more than death

but here’s the plot twist nobody talks about:
ai will do everything
except the one thing that actually matters
talking to humans

you can have chatgpt:
→ write your code
→ build your pitch deck
→ draft your emails

but it can’t:
→ read the room in a client meeting
→ navigate the awkward silence after you propose an idea
→ build trust with a colleague who’s about to quit

i watched a brilliant developer lose a promotion
not because his code was bad
but because he couldn’t explain why it mattered in a 5 minute standup

meanwhile, someone with half his skills but twice his communication got the role

the uncomfortable truth:
in 5 years, ai handles the work
you handle the conversation

and most of us are training for the wrong skill
we’re learning prompts
we should be learning presence

the future won’t belong to the best coders
it will belong to the best communicators who know how to use ai

Perfect for:
- LinkedIn banners that mean something
- Intro slides that don't bore people
- Portfolio pieces for students with zero design experience

The tool I wish existed when I was explaining my accidental founder story 100 times over

everyone wants to be a founder until it’s 2 am and you’re still working.

that’s usually when the “passion” gets tested.

here’s the part we don’t talk about enough:
work-life balance looks very different when you’re building something from zero.

people love to say:
“oh, but you have flexible hours.”
“you’re your own boss.”

what they don’t see is that flexible often just means everything blends together.

in the early days, balance isn’t perfect. it’s messy. it shifts week to week.

some weeks you miss plans
some days your energy is low
some conversations get harder
some nights your mind just won’t switch off

and everyone around you will have opinions:
“you’re doing too much.”
“this doesn’t feel sustainable.”
“don’t forget to take care of yourself.”

they’re not wrong. and they usually mean well.
but they’re also not in your shoes.

the uncomfortable truth:
→ focus can look like obsession from the outside
→ building something meaningful often asks for more than a 9–5
→ the work isn’t glamorous most days
→ balance is something you actively build, not something you start with

i’m not glorifying burnout.
i’m just being honest about the early-stage trade-offs.

if you want the founder life people admire later,
you have to be willing to sit with some discomfort now.

lock in when it matters.
rest when you can.
adjust as you go.

still working late tonight?
you’re not alone.

You type well. You speak poorly. Fix that.

Students aren’t losing opportunities because they’re “not skilled.”
They’re losing them because they can’t communicate.

So let’s get actionable.

If you want to fix your communication, do these 7 things immediately:

1️⃣ Record yourself speaking for 60 seconds daily.
You’ll instantly spot your ums, pauses, fillers, and weak points.

2️⃣ Join one real conversation every day.
Not texting.
Not DMs.
A real conversation, with a classmate, senior, professor, anyone.

3️⃣ Explain one concept out loud like you’re teaching it.
If you can’t explain simply, you don’t really understand it.

4️⃣ Start replacing “I don’t know what to say” with questions.
Question = conversation starter.
Silence = opportunity killer.

5️⃣ Give your answers in a structure: Point → Reason → Example.
This works in every interview, GD, and networking call.

6️⃣ Practice talking without reading from your screen.
You won’t have notes in interviews.
Train for the real environment.

7️⃣ Join uncomfortable conversations.
Ask for feedback.
Talk to seniors.
Introduce yourself first.
Growth only happens in discomfort.

Because here’s the truth nobody tells you:

Communication is a skill.
Not a personality trait.
Not a talent.
A skill.

And if you don’t build it now, it will cost you:
→ Internships
→ Placements
→ Opportunities
→ Confidence

Fix it before it fixes your future for you.

Made with NotebookLM

Building in India? This is the only Elon Musk x Nikhil Kamath insight you need:

1. Create value, not noise
Don’t chase money. Chase usefulness. If your product solves a real problem, revenue follows. Be a net contributor. Make sure your output is worth more than your input.

2. Outwork everyone
You want to build something difficult? Expect serious hours. Serious focus. Real chance of failure. No one glamorizes this part, but every founder feels it.

3. AI is the supersonic tsunami
This decade is the biggest tech shift of our lifetime.

• Work becomes optional in 10 to 20 years
• Biggest value creation sits in AI, robotics, space
• When content becomes infinite, live experiences go premium

If you’re building around AI today, you’re still early.

4. Study widely
Don’t memorise. Think across disciplines. Arts, science, psychology, logic. More mental models equals better decisions. Also, keep humor alive. Humorless societies don’t innovate.

5. Bet on fundamentals
Ignore the noise. Back products you actually like. Back teams that are hungry, talented, obsessed with creating value.

The analogy that stuck:
Being a young founder today feels like building a house while the climate keeps shifting.

Your foundation: value creation
Your survival: work ethic
Your advantage: using AI before the rest of the world wakes up

Something Unexpected Just Happened.

After 4 days and 16 hours together, the AI Mastery Workshop ended.
As we wrapped up, one participant said:

"We can't stop here. We need to keep meeting."
Others jumped in:
"Yes! Share our wins and struggles."
"Learn from each other's experiments."
"Let's meet every week."

I smiled, thinking it was post-workshop energy.
A sentiment that would fade by Monday.

Monday Morning Proved Me Wrong.
The WhatsApp group EXPLODED.
Not with thank yous or goodbyes.
With AI experiments:

"I created my website!"
"Stuck on this prompt, help?"
"Built a insta reel, trending now."

Then someone posted:
"We said we'd meet. When?"


The Drama Began.
A poll was created:

📊 When should we meet?
→ Morning or evening?
→ Weekday or weekend?
→ Which day works for everyone?

The debate:

"Mornings! Fresh mind, clear focus."
"Evenings! After work is better."
"Weekends! No business interruptions."
"Weekdays! Keep the momentum."
Messages flying at 11 PM.
Business owners debating like it's a board meeting.
For a VOLUNTARY learning session.



The Decision:
Every Thursday, 8:30 AM
Over 50% have already confirmed.
And here's what made me realise this is real:

I'm joining too.
Not as the instructor.
As a participant.
Because what they're building?
I want to learn from it too.



Why This Matters:
Most workshops end with:
→ Certificates collected
→ "Great session!" messages
→ Silence by day 3

This group?
They're arguing about meeting schedules.
Creating polls.
Committing to 8:30 AM wake-ups.
For peer learning.

That's not post-workshop politeness.
That's genuine hunger.


What We'll Do Thursday:
No slides. No lectures. Just:
→ Show what you built this week
→ Share what broke (and why)
→ Get unstuck together
→ Discover new tools
→ Plan next week's experiments

Real implementations.
Real problems.
Real solutions.

Peer-to-peer learning at its best.



My Realisation:

I designed a 4-day workshop.
They're creating a continuous learning community.
I taught them AI tools.
They're teaching each other mastery.

And honestly?
I'm more excited for Thursday than I was for Day 1.
Because this time, I'm learning too.



To Everyone Who Voted in That Poll:
You didn't just pick a meeting time.
You committed to growth.
To showing up.
To being vulnerable with failures.
To celebrating wins together.
To refusing to stop learning.
That's rare.

And watching business owners in their 40s-50s debate meeting times at 11 PM on WhatsApp?
That's not a workshop outcome.

Something Just Changed Everything.

Google just did what every AI image tool failed at.

They fixed THE problem.

Text in AI images. Finally readable.

Nano Banana Pro.

And it conquered what almost every AI Model messed up:

Clean. Accurate. Usable text.

The Test:

I generated the same thank you card.

Added specs.

Different fonts.

Different backgrounds.

Every single time?

Perfect text. Zero edits needed.

Why This Matters:

Before today:
→ Generate image
→ Text looks like alien language
→ Open editing app
→ Fix manually
→ Finally use

Now:
→ Generate
→ Done

What are the possibilities  : 

Business cards? Instant.

Workshop materials? Direct.

Event cards? Ready.

Social posts? No back-and-forth.

Thank you notes? One prompt away.

The Reality Check:

This was THE most demanded feature.

And Nano Banana Pro delivered.

I'm updating our entire teaching deck.

Because this isn't just an upgrade.

It's a workflow revolution.

How to Use:

Go to Gemini.

Choose Nano Banana Pro.

Select thinking mode.

Generate.

Watch text appear. Correctly.

My Take:

We spent months teaching workarounds.

"Generate, then edit text separately."

That just became obsolete.

This is 10X more useful.

Not because it's fancy.

Because it removes friction.

And friction is what stops adoption.

P.S. Check the images. Same card, different styles. Text quality? Production-ready. No edits. That's the revolution. Use It today and let me know how it goes for you .

"Seeing is Believing" Died Yesterday. 
When We Showed 50+ Business Owners & Ladies Entrepreneurs the Power of AI in 30 Seconds, Room Went Silent.

Hindustan Club, Kolkata. 5:30 PM on 20th Nov. 50+ entrepreneurs packed in the room.
I started with: "You're using a Million Dollar Bot like a ₹50 Chappu."

Then I showed them:
Image → Professinal  Video in 30 seconds (their jaws dropped) 
15-year-old writing "Chutneys of the World" book with AI
72-year-old grandmother creating Human + Batman stories for grandkids

The Questions That Came:

"What should our kids prepare for?"
"Can it REALLY make videos that fast?"
"How do we learn more?"
"Why didn't anyone tell us this before?"

The 1995 Nokia Moment:
I told them my story. 1995, Kolkata, door-to-door, heavy brick phone.
"₹45,000? Pagal ho gaye? Landline hai - ghar mein hai, office mein hai!"
10 years later? Same uncle can't sleep without phone.
Today = Same story. Different technology. Moving FASTER.

What We Showcased in 45 Minutes:
TEST 1: Save 8-10 hours weekly (100% virtual recruitment process)
TEST 2: Double your profit - Engage your customers (Image to video, live demo)
TEST 3: Transform personal life (real stories, real results)
The Dark Side They Needed to Hear:

Your face can be anyone's face in 30 seconds
Your voice can be cloned for blackmail
"Seeing is believing" is officially dead
Elon Musk says: "AI is more dangerous than nukes"

The NEW Business Reality:
4 people can build ₹100 crore companies today.
Not 40. Just 4.
Machine + Humanoid + Human = Your new workforce.

The Spontaneous Decision:
Ladies Wing members started discussing among themselves.
By the end? They decided RIGHT THERE - long-term AI course needed.
Didn't wait. Didn't think. Just DECIDED.
That's when I knew - this isn't curiosity anymore. This is URGENCY.

3 Actions I Gave Them:
If you have to use one Gen AI Platform - Use Gemini
3 days/week × 1 hour = Experiment (Tinkering)
Use beyond business - health, kids, diet, relationships

Massive Gratitude To:
🙏 Hindustan Club & Ladies Wing for hosting this critical conversation
🙏 Dr. Vijay Kejriwal for co-presenting and medical AI insights
🙏 President Sanjay Goenka | Hony. Secretary Kamal Ghelani
🙏 Ladies Wing Chairperson Nilima Goenka | Co-Chairperson Savita Agarwal
For bringing together Kolkata's business community and trusting us with this important mission.

To Everyone Who Attended:
You asked: "Nobody told us this before."
That's exactly WHY we do this work.
Now you know. Now ACT.

Your 20-30 years of domain expertise + AI = DEADLY combination.
Don't let your competitor figure this out before you do.

P.S. This is your 1995 mobile moment. Again.
Those who learned early - succeeded.
Those who waited - struggled.

Which side will you be on?

The Image below was made by a participant .

In 1995, when I was selling mobile phones the size of bricks door-to-door, people laughed.
"40,000 rupees for a phone? Are you crazy?"
Today, nobody can sleep without one.
The same picture is repeating - with Gen AI.

If you think "I used ChatGPT, so I know AI" - then you're riding a Mercedes like a bicycle.
Tomorrow I'm running a session with Dr Vijay Kejriwal specially focused for business owners at Hindustan Club where I'll show:

Why this is golden time for small businesses
How to save 8-10 hours every week
How AI can increase your profit exponentially
How to use AI to bring happiness to personal life

Simple language. No technical jargon. Short and sweet.
Interested? If you're in Kolkata and wish to join, ping me for registration.
This is free and have limited seats . First Come First served basis .

This is the 1995 mobile moment for small businesses. 
Don't miss it.

Every parent with a teenage kid should watch "Papa Yaar." 
It could be your Ikigai moment as a parent.

Last week, I spent 2 hours laughing until my jaw hurt at Zakir Khan's show. 
But I left with something unexpected—insights that mirror exactly what I see in my ikigai sessions with young kids and families.

I teach Ikigai, 
and this show could bring a completely different perspective—for parents on how to deal with kids, and for kids on why parents do what they do.

What struck me wasn't just the humor. 
It was how accurately he captured the parent-child dynamics I witness firsthand in my work.

The pressure parents unknowingly put on kids. 
The unspoken expectations. 
The emotional distance masked as discipline. 
The sacrifices used as leverage. 

Every joke landed because it was painfully true.
In my ikigai sessions, I see both sides of this struggle:

Parents who mean well but communicate poorly. 
Fathers who show love through criticism. 
Mothers who overcompensate.

Kids who feel misunderstood, 
pressured, but rarely see the fear, insecurity, and deep love behind their parents' actions.

Zakir Khan brilliantly showed both perspectives. 
Parents will see themselves and cringe. 
Kids will finally understand why their parents behave the way they do—the childhood conditioning, the societal pressure, the helplessness of wanting the best but not knowing how.

Some observations on his storytelling craft:

Universal yet personal - His Indore childhood stories somehow became every Indian family's story.
Emotional range - From laughter to tears to reflection, all within the same narrative arc.
Cultural authenticity - His Hinglish and observations felt genuine, not manufactured.
Timing and pauses - Pure craft honed over years.

If Papa Yaar is coming to your city, watch it live. 
Parents—take your teenage kids. 
Kids—take your parents. 

You'll laugh together, but more importantly, 
you might finally understand each other.

Thanks Zakir Khan for an evening that was equal parts entertainment and education.

One of the best AI tool is completely free to use.
And 90% still don't know it exists.

NotebookLM is Google's AI tool that turns your messy documents into organised insights. 
Upload anything—PDFs, reports, notes, websites—and it instantly becomes your personal research assistant.
Ask questions. 
Get summaries. 
Connect ideas across multiple sources.

But here's where it gets insane:
NotebookLM now creates cusotmised AI-generated videos from your documents.
Not just text summaries. Actual videos with customisable:
→ Visual styles (explainer, walkthrough, presentation)
→ Tone (professional, casual, warm)
→ Focus areas (specific sections or full overview)

Let me share a hack nobody's talking about:

Link ALL your business assets first:
→ Your website pages
→ Marketing materials
→ Product docs
→ Client testimonials
→ Case studies

Then use this simple prompt:
"Make a warm, conversational video explaining our services and setting expectations for new clients."

Result? 

The best way to impress your clients in your first interaction.
No camera. 
No editing. 
No mic.

Use AI to grow faster. Not harder.

Are you still creating content the hard way?

Are designers about to become obsolete? 
The internet is going absolutely berserk over Nano Banana Pro

I don't say this lightly—but if you haven't tried Nano Banana yet, you're absolutely missing what could be the biggest shift in visual content creation since Photoshop.

Spent my weekend experimenting with it. 
And honestly? 
I'm overwhelmed.

Go to X right now. 
Hundreds of people are going berserk. 
Designers, marketers, content creators—everyone is losing their minds over what this tool can do.

The power is astonishing. 
The use cases are endless. 
The implications? Potentially industry-changing.

Here's what Nano Banana does that's making everyone question everything:

Character consistency across images - Create an AI influencer, brand mascot, or visual character and maintain perfect facial details across dozens of edits. This alone changes content creation.

One-shot editing - No more 15 iterations to get it right. Describe what you want in plain language, and it delivers. First try.

Multi-image context - Upload multiple images, blend them, edit them together. The AI understands spatial relationships and context like never before.

Text that actually works - Remember when AI couldn't spell? 
Those days are over. 
Nano Banana renders legible, accurate text inside images.

Speed - 5-10 seconds. Not minutes. Seconds.

I'm adding one fun use case here just to show you what's possible Personal Selfie Doodle . But there are so many business applications—marketing campaigns, product mockups, social media content, training materials, presentations.

We'll be sharing practical business use cases over the next couple of weeks. But for now, if you want the exact prompt I used for this, Comment with Nano Banana and I'll share it.

(Prompt inspired by an X user, Discovered & Modified by our team)

The real question: If anyone can now create studio-quality visuals in seconds with just text prompts, what happens to the design profession?

I don't have the answer yet. 
But I know this conversation is happening whether we're ready or not.
