Nano Banana is totally bananas 🍌 | Get certified and launch an actual AI Product | AI PM Jobs
For folks that haven't tried this yet, it's an advanced AI image model from Google DeepMind that allows you to edit and combine photos with text. You can try it out or build your own app leveraging it.
Why this matters to us builders
For product managers and builders, it means we can:
Rapidly test concepts before investing in design cycles
Enable users to co-create content in ways previously impossible
Rethink how interfaces work when language becomes the new design tool
Things to try
Combine two unrelated photos (e.g., your desk + a beach) with a single prompt.
Edit product mockups instantly by swapping colors, logos, or backgrounds.
Prototype marketing visuals without design tools.
Generate variations of the same image to explore creative directions.
Build a lightweight app that lets users co-create content with text commands.
Turn your pet into a superhero or your coffee mug into a spaceship 🚀
Make alternate versions of your LinkedIn headshot just for fun 😉

It’s called a bootcamp for a reason 🏋♂️
For my signature course’s September's cohort - 6-week AI PM Bootcamp cohort, I’m assigning an engineer to every single team — so you don’t just design a capstone project, you *actually* launch it.
We joined forces with a brand new AI no-code prototyping tool that outputs full front-ends and apps (UI included). With an engineer on your team's side, your idea goes from concept → real, functioning product.
‼️ And on Demo Day, you’ll pitch not only to AI leaders, but also to a bay area Entrepreneur-in-Residence scout keeping an eye out for standout builders.
Building AI products is not theory — it’s real, and it’s here. Take a look at our refreshed offerings. We start in 3 days, and we offer 30% off. Join us!
p.s. I just love how Nano banana decided to add a gatorade when I added the word bootcamp 🍌
