I've basically had the exact same haircut since high school, so this year I finally decided to experiment a bit with Nano Banana 2 and see what a different look might feel like. I uploaded my own portraits and started merging them with different models' hairstyles. After 10+ rounds of virtual makeovers, I found out that the hairstyle that suited me best was… my current one. Step-by-step: 1. I uploaded my own portrait photos to Nano Banana 2. 2. I gathered examples of different hairstyles I wanted to test. 3. I asked the model to merge each hairstyle with my portraits while keeping my identity recognizable. 4. I repeated the process for more than ten virtual makeovers. 5. I compared the results side by side and learned that my current haircut still suited me best.

I used Claude and Nano Banana 2 to create a detailed landscaping plan for my property. The plan included precise recommendations for plant types and locations, soil testing, purchase lists, local suppliers, expected wholesale pricing, and photorealistic images of the mature planting beds. I refined the plan through 20–30 iterations, incorporating all of my requirements. Because I have previous experience working with landscape architects, I was able to use the AI-generated plan effectively and legitimately saved $5,000 in fees. Step-by-step: 1. I used Claude and Nano Banana 2 to develop a landscaping plan for my property. 2. I included requirements for plant types and locations, soil testing, purchase lists, local suppliers, expected wholesale pricing, and photorealistic images of the mature planting beds. 3. I refined the plan through 20–30 iterations until all of my requirements were incorporated. 4. I used my previous experience working with landscape architects to evaluate and apply the plan. 5. I saved $5,000 in landscape architecture fees.

I had a bad workplace experience, so I built Doris: a saucy but loving anonymous AI aunt who remembers the tea, protects storytellers, and warns others. I built Spill Tea with Doris, an anonymous AI workplace confessional for conversations people cannot really have on LinkedIn: the bad manager, the inexplicable reorg, the coworker who somehow survives every layoff, and the meeting that should probably be entered into evidence. Doris does something more interesting than simply listen. She remembers the tea—and, carefully, spills it. The problem I wanted to solve was not really “chat with an AI.” Most AI conversations are disposable, but workplace stories are not. They accumulate companies, people, reorganizations, layoffs, recurring behaviors, management decisions, and institutional weirdness. At the same time, people are understandably reluctant to talk openly about their employers because a sufficiently specific story can identify its author. I designed Doris around a different idea: retain the knowledge without retaining the storyteller’s identity. Someone visits [spillteawithdoris.com](https://spillteawithdoris.com) and tells Doris what happened at work. The application is built in Next.js and deployed through Vercel. The conversation goes to an AI model with Doris’s personality and behavioral rules. Redis handles temporary conversational context, while Neon Postgres and Prisma maintain the structured, longer-lived pieces of the story—companies, people, events, and their relationships. Rather than treating every conversation as one giant transcript, the application extracts useful information and connects it to the larger story of a company. That creates the second half of the experience. When another visitor asks Doris, “Have you heard anything about working at Company X?”, she can draw upon what previous visitors have told her. But she does not simply retrieve someone’s confession and repeat it. The system separates what is useful about a story from what could identify the person who told it. Names, exact teams, precise dates, unusual job titles, and other unnecessarily identifying details do not need to travel with the underlying observation. Doris can instead recognize that she has heard several stories involving reorganizations, unusual management turnover, or a particular cultural complaint. Then Doris tells the story herself, in Doris’s voice. She might say that she’s “heard some tea” about a company, explain the general pattern, distinguish something she’s heard once from something that appears repeatedly, and avoid pretending anonymous reports are established facts. Visitors get useful institutional memory without being handed the breadcrumbs needed to identify an individual employee. Public information can provide a second layer of context. If appropriate, Doris can search for publicly available information about a company and compare it with what people have privately described. Those sources remain conceptually separate: what Doris can verify publicly, what Doris has heard privately, and what Doris herself infers should never become the same thing. The result is deliberately a little strange. It is an anti-LinkedIn. LinkedIn is where thousands of individual experiences are polished until every company sounds wonderful and every departure is an exciting new chapter. Doris works in the opposite direction. One anonymous story may just be a story. Ten people independently telling Doris versions of the same story start to describe a workplace. And Doris remembers. She just doesn’t need to remember who told her. Step-by-step: 1. I built a Next.js application and deployed it through Vercel at spillteawithdoris.com. 2. I defined Doris’s personality and behavioral rules for the AI model. 3. I added Redis to manage temporary conversational context. 4. I created a Neon Postgres database and used Prisma to model Company, Person, Story, and Event relationships. 5. I built an extraction layer that converts conversations into structured observations, removes unnecessary identifying information, and associates the knowledge with the appropriate company. 6. I built retrieval so Doris can find relevant prior observations when someone asks about a company. 7. I had the AI synthesize those observations in Doris’s voice instead of quoting or exposing the original submissions. 8. When appropriate, I let Doris search publicly available company information while keeping public sources, private reports, and Doris’s inferences conceptually separate.
