Hey! Thanks for stopping by ✌️ I'm building Wicked. The all-in-one copy, design, and creative strategy subscription for DTC brands. X is where I document the process, progress, and daily "what have I gotten myself into" thoughts. If you're into that kind of thing—follow along!

Marketers are terrified of Claude Code because it runs on the CLI. I bet 90% won't even touch it. But those who can get past the initial discomfort will get so far ahead of the curve it's insane. I've abstracted most of my static ad agency ops into one folder that's run by CC. I…


While examples like these get me extremely hyped, I can't help but wonder if what I'm building won't become obsolete. I.e., why do you need a product img generator if you can cut out the middle man and generate the final ads, emails, etc. instead? Anyway, back to building.

🚨 Nano Banana 2 is absolutely insane. I’ll share more outputs soon, hopefully they don’t censor the model before release. This is crazy 😭 We’re about to get Gemini 3.0 Pro, GPT-5.1, GPT-5.1 Pro, Nano Banana 2, and Genie 3, which I’m really excited about. Credit to @URUBONZ_.

One of my favorite workflows for creating product shots. 1. Drop a reference image and select it 2. Tag the product you want to replicate the shot with (simple @ tag) 3. No prompt needed - just let 'er rip 4. Once you generate a shot you like, repeat with a different product.

I'm testing my AI product photography app and need volunteers ✋ Comment the link to your product page and I'll generate 3 unique product shots you can use for ads, emails, PDP, etc.. It has to be a CPG product. Limited slots.

AI did the research. AI suggested the angle. AI thought of the concepts. AI wrote (most of) the copy. AI prompted and generated the images. I just put all of it together. Kinda crazy.

Been playing around with the product image generation layer for the AI creative strategy assistant. Finally starting to get some serious outputs. Nano Banana is definitely the leading model, but it isn't as straightforward as they advertise it.

The response to ChatGPT’s new image generation update has been insane. Since it dropped, we’ve been deep in the weeds—testing prompts, building workflows, and generating scroll-stopping ads in seconds. Here’s what it unlocks: - Turn a product photo or even just a description…
