My creative workflow has changed a lot since I started using AI image generation.
Not because I found the perfect tool, but because I stopped looking for one. This is an honest look at how I move between Gemini, Firefly, and Kittl depending on where I am in a project.
Different stages of a project call for different approaches.
What's the one AI tool you keep coming back to?
awesome
This is Good
Thanks! 😊

What if your AI workflow is the reason your brand still looks generic?
Q2 forced me to reset how I build everything creatively and honestly… I simplified it way down.
Right now my process is just two tools, but waaay more intention behind them.
I’m using Claude to actually think with me. I feed it strategy, references, and the full brand world, and it translates that into really detailed prompts. When you pair that with Nano Banana 2, you finally start seeing visuals that actually feel like your brand.
I stopped expecting AI to figure it out and started directing it like a creative partner.
That’s also why I moved away from MidJourney. The second you need anything brand-specific like real text, packaging, or logos, it starts to fall apart. It’s great for vibes, not for building real brand systems.
This workflow forces more clarity upfront, and the output is 10x more intentional.
Curious how everyone else is using AI right now… are you directing it, or letting it lead?
*Concept only. Not an official collaboration.
good talk
looks great
@Midjourney still feels like the best tool for visuals/stock generation out there. Anyone have different experience?
This is impressive and shows a lot of potential. It makes me wonder—what’s the next level for you after this?
