My dad imports rugs. Every new piece gets photographed on the floor and posted to Instagram. I wanted customers to see how these pieces actually look in a home. So I built an automation. 🤓
He sends a photo to a Telegram bot. Gemini 2.5 Pro analyzes the rug, identifying origin, motifs, color palette, and weave technique. That feeds into a second call that writes an interior photography prompt. Gemini generates two styled room renders.
Veo 3.1 produces a cinematic camera transition between them.
Topaz Labs then upscales Veo's 1080p 24fps output to 4K 60fps.
Next up, making the rooms look less like renders and more like real apartments 😄
The stack: n8n · Gemini 2.5 Pro · Veo 3.1 · Topaz Labs
Here are the n8n workflows behind this

My current AI powered workflow as a designer and non native English speaker:
→ I use ChatGPT’s Memory as my operational brain. I fed it my pricing, deliverables and feedback rounds, so when I draft complex client emails, I’m not starting from zero. I edit everything, ✨always✨.
I’m fluent in English, but it helps me catch small grammar or spelling details for extra credibility.
→ When I find myself spending hours 🫠searching for the perfect packaging mockup I turn to Adobe Firefly to create them. The Nano Banana integration is honestly amazing.
What’s actually working? AI removes admin noise and speeds up exploration although it’s terrible at taste. Strategy and design are still human work.
Which part of your workflow has AI genuinely improved, and which part would you never hand over?
Very thoughtful workflow approach. Curious — what aspect of your process improved the most after structuring memory this way?
Where’s the one-click magic?
Let’s admit it, we all had that expectation that AI would arrive and suddenly everything could be done in one click
That didn’t happen
The narrative that AI would replace creative professions proved to be far from reality. And very toxic
There’s still no universal tool that can do everything I need. So I have a million and one subscriptions, each handling something specific
I’ll explain through my image workflow, since it’s the most illustrative example:
1. Prompt → ChatGPT
2. Generation → Midjourney
3. Upscale → Pixelcut or Magnific
4. Post-processing → Photoshop AI
5. Mockup → Illustrator or Nano Banana
Would I love to avoid all this jumping between tools? Absolutely
Can I skip it and sacrifice quality? No
The tools are powerful, but the magic is still in our creative hands🖤
My very first video template created with CapCut AI.
Although CapCut has long been my go-to video editor, I haven’t really dived in and explored its AI capabilities just yet. 👀
For anyone interested, here’s a breakdown of how I built my CapCut AI template:

1. CapCut offers Mobile, Desktop, and Browser editors. I usually use Desktop, but chose Browser this time (note: features can vary across editors).
2. Opened AI Video Maker and used a simple prompt:...
