A one-minute prompt turns product photos into Christmas creative
An AI practitioner has shared a Nano Banana Pro prompt that converts any product photo into a clean, realistic Christmas-themed version in under a minute, a task he paid designers to do for a decade. Holiday-themed imagery is credited with 20-50% click-through lifts in many cases, making fast seasonal creative valuable deep into the peak.
The prompt, tested across lifestyle photography, images of children and plain product shots, is circulating free with a short demo video.
In platform news, Amazon has rebuilt Alexa from the ground up as an autonomous agent. Alexa+ orchestrates multiple large language models through Amazon Bedrock, and its Nova Act visual agent can see and operate websites without APIs, navigating pages, filling forms and completing purchases. Amazon calls the vision 'ambient assistance': a single request, like booking a hotel, carried out end to end across a vast web of connected devices and services.
