🍌 27 Nano Banana Prompts That’ll Blow Your Mind

Remember when everyone was doing Ghibli edits? Well, move over, the internet’s got a new obsession.
It’s called Nano Banana (yep, that’s the name) and it’s powered by Google’s latest AI update. People are turning regular photos into tiny 3D figurines, poster-style edits, even game characters.
The trick all comes down to the prompts you use. One good line and suddenly your selfie looks like it belongs in a collector’s showcase.
We pulled together 27 of the wildest Nano Banana prompts — from outfit swaps to ad-ready posters, so you can skip the guesswork and start creating.
If you’re not riding this wave yet, you’re already late.

The AI Mirror Test - A fascinating essay on whether AI can really understand itself (or if it’s just reflecting us back).
The Prompt Engineering Guide- A living, community-built manual of prompts, hacks, and case studies for squeezing the most out of LLMs.
Anthropic’s Constitutional AI Paper - The behind-the-scenes philosophy that makes Claude “safe but smart.” Worth a skim if you want to see how values get coded into AI.

🧠 Prompt: Repurpose My Content Everywhere
“I want you to act as my content repurposing strategist. I’ll give you one LinkedIn post I’ve already written. Your job is to:
Turn it into a tweet thread (short, punchy, scroll-stopping).
Rewrite it as a newsletter intro (personal, story-driven, engaging).
Script it as a 30–45 second Instagram reel (with hooks + pacing).
Keep my unique voice intact. Don’t make it sound generic or ‘AI-ish.’ Each version should feel like me, just reshaped for the platform.”
What To Ask First (Context You’ll Need):
My original LinkedIn post (copy-paste).
My writing tone (casual, professional, witty, bold, etc.).
Target audience (founders, creators, B2B execs, general audience).
Platform goals (e.g., X = virality, newsletter = depth, IG = relatability).
How The Output Should Look (Step-by-Step):
Tweet Thread
Hook tweet (scroll-stopper, curiosity-driven).
5–7 short tweets, each ≤ 280 characters.
Use line breaks + simple sentences → high skimmability.
End with a clear takeaway or CTA.
Newsletter Intro
2–3 paragraphs, conversational and reflective.
Open with a human story or hook.
Bridge into the insight or main lesson from the LinkedIn post.
End with a question or teaser that flows into the main newsletter content.
Instagram Reel Script
Line 1 = strong hook (7 words or less).
Break into 4–5 short lines → fast delivery.
Add stage directions if relevant (pause, gesture, cut).
End with a sharp takeaway or call-to-action (e.g., follow, save).
Constraints (So It’s Always Good):
Don’t add jargon or clichés (“synergy,” “hustle harder”).
Keep formatting native to each platform (threads = one-liners, reels = short spoken sentences, newsletter = flowing paragraphs).
Use my voice — not robotic, not copywriter-polished.
Length check: Thread < 7 tweets, Reel = 30–45s, Newsletter intro < 250 words.”
