Google’s Nano Banana: The AI tool to replace Stock Imagery Forever
Training materials are more than words on a screen. Research into learning design has shown that strong visuals increase recall, create context and make complex ideas easier to understand. Yet many organisations still rely on generic stock photography or staged images that bear little resemblance to their real workplace. The result is predictable. PowerPoint slides look the same as every other presentation, eLearning modules feature the same smiling strangers as competitors, and brochures show workplaces that do not match the reality of day-to-day life. The lack of authenticity damages engagement and undermines the impact of training. Introducing Nano Banana Google’s new image generation model, Nano Banana, has been designed to address this gap. Built directly into Google Gemini, it creates photorealistic, brand-consistent visuals in just a few seconds. Unlike many AI image generators, Nano Banana is fast, professional and designed for use at scale. The key strength is consistency. Upload a single photo of an employee and the model can reproduce that person in multiple training scenarios: Delivering a safety briefing in a PowerPoint presentation Appearing in an eLearning module with realistic workplace backdrops Featuring in a compliance brochure or policy guide Presenting on a company website or internal platform Instead of anonymous office workers, the images show recognisable staff in familiar environments. Training materials suddenly feel authentic, relevant and tailored to the organisation. Watch Nano Banana in Action We explored exactly how Nano Banana works and how quickly it can generate workplace scenarios in our latest video. See for yourself how this tool creates a complete library of visuals in minutes: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2DnE3P69mE4 From Cost to Consistency Traditional approaches to training visuals are expensive. Commissioning professional photography can cost thousands of pounds, while stock photo libraries charge hundreds for limited licences. Neither guarantees that the result reflects the real organisation. Nano Banana flips that model. By using AI to create authentic, repeatable visuals, companies can build entire training campaigns without the cost or compromise of traditional photography. The result is not only financial efficiency but also cultural consistency: training materials across departments, platforms and years carry the same recognisable imagery. Where Open eLMS Fits In Open eLMS provides the platform to put these visuals to work. The Learning Generator converts documents and policies into interactive training courses, while the LMS delivers them in a Netflix-style interface. Combined with tools like Nano Banana, organisations can build courses that are both engaging and visually consistent. With Open eLMS you can: Embed AI-generated branded visuals into courses instantly Export training in multiple formats from a single source Deliver a seamless learner experience backed by proven learning science You can explore these capabilities with a 14-day free trial: Open eLMS LMS 14 Day Free Trial Open eLMS Learning Generator Free Trial The Next Step for Training Design For decades, training visuals have been an afterthought: borrowed, staged or generic. Now, with AI image generation models like Nano Banana, organisations can create bespoke, branded content in seconds. The opportunity is clear. The only question is whether companies will continue relying on generic stock photos, or choose visuals that truly reflect their people and workplace.
Four AI Learning Strategies That Improve Study by 200%
Most people study in ways that feel comfortable but do not work. Highlighting, rereading and memorising notes create the illusion of learning but result in poor long-term retention. Learners forget up to 70% of material within 24 hours because the brain has not been properly challenged. This is why modern learning needs scientifically proven methods that engage memory, encourage active thinking and create deeper connections. The problem is that traditional classrooms, rigid timetables and outdated training resources rarely allow these strategies to be used effectively. Learners are often pushed forward before they have mastered the content, while organisations struggle to deliver personalised approaches at scale. What are the solutions? Cognitive science has identified four strategies that dramatically improve learning: Spaced repetition – reviewing material at carefully timed intervals to strengthen memory Active recall – testing yourself rather than passively rereading Elaborative interrogation – asking why something is true and linking it to prior knowledge Interleaving – mixing topics and formats to force the brain to distinguish and connect ideas Together these approaches can improve retention by up to 200%. Watch the video below to see exactly how they work in practice and how AI can bring them seamlessly into your study or training. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EBZY1Ly27m8&t=2s Why these findings are important Research shows that passive methods such as rereading and highlighting improve test performance by less than 1 per cent. Yet they remain the most common study approach. By contrast, proven methods such as spaced repetition, active recall, elaborative interrogation and interleaving deliver significantly higher retention and understanding. AI now allows these techniques to be embedded into eLearning platforms automatically. Learners are tested, prompted and supported in ways that match how the brain naturally retains knowledge. For organisations, this means improved training outcomes, better compliance results and more efficient learning delivery. How Open eLMS can help Open eLMS makes it simple to apply the four most effective learning strategies directly within your training programmes: Spaced repetition – The Open eLMS LMS tracks learner progress and automatically notifies and recommends learning to users when they are due to revisit material. This ensures concepts are reviewed at optimal intervals, strengthening memory over time. Active recall – The Open eLMS Learning Generator creates interactive quizzes, knowledge checks and gamified learning experiences from your source material. Learners are prompted to retrieve information continuously, reinforcing recall while staying engaged. Elaborative interrogation – The AI chat system is trained exclusively on your course content, prompting learners with tailored follow-up questions such as “why does this work?” or “how does this link to what you studied earlier?” This encourages deeper thinking and stronger connections between ideas. Interleaving – The Learning Generator exports the same material into multiple formats, from PowerPoint slides to eLearning modules, gamified challenges and podcasts. Learners encounter the same concepts across different contexts, mixing topics and formats to enhance mastery. By embedding these four strategies into everyday study, Open eLMS ensures learners do not just consume information but actually retain and apply it. You can try both for free below: Open eLMS Learning Generator Free Trial Open eLMS LMS Free Trial Where does this leave us? If almost every learner relies on methods that do not work, yet the science and technology to fix it already exist, the challenge is clear. Will learners continue with ineffective habits, or take advantage of AI learning strategies that genuinely improve study results?
Vibe Coding Showdown: Gemini vs ChatGPT. Can AI Really Build eLearning Games?
Can artificial intelligence really build your training games? The hype around AI tools is everywhere. We are told they can write our emails, analyse our data and even design our courses. But can they really create something as complex as an interactive training game? This question matters. For learning and development teams under pressure to produce content quickly, the idea of “vibe coding” — where you simply ask an AI to code for you, is both exciting and daunting. Could this replace weeks of development time? Or is it just smoke and mirrors? In this blog, I share my own experiment where I asked ChatGPT 5 and Google Gemini to build a modular Space Invaders-style quiz game for training. The results were surprising. What is Vibe Coding and Why Does it Matter? Vibe coding is shorthand for coding by conversation. Instead of opening an IDE and writing lines of code, you describe what you want and let an AI tool generate it. The promise is simple: non-programmers can produce complex applications with natural language prompts. For the training industry, this is particularly attractive. Imagine telling an AI: “Build me a branching scenario with quiz questions that can be reused across different subjects.” If it worked, you could design interactive modules faster than ever before. But there are risks. AI models do not actually “understand” the systems they are coding. They generate text that looks like code based on patterns from their training data. This means that while they can often produce impressive demos, the code may break once you step outside the most common scenarios. The Experiment: ChatGPT 5 vs Google Gemini To test how well vibe coding really works, I gave both ChatGPT 5 and Google Gemini the same brief: Build a Space Invaders-style arcade game. Incorporate quiz questions every few plays. Use XML and JavaScript files for the questions so the game can be modular and reused. The aim was not just to create a flashy game but to test whether AI could handle modularity, a principle at the heart of scalable training content. Watch the full experiment here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3pSCrWRkk5o ChatGPT 5: Familiar but Frustrating ChatGPT knew exactly how to create a Space Invaders clone. Within minutes, it produced a playable version of the classic game. But problems appeared as soon as I asked it to pull in questions from external files. File handling issues: It repeatedly failed to load the XML quiz file and instead generated its own placeholder questions. Error loops: Even after feeding it console errors and asking for fixes, the same issues resurfaced. Focus drift: ChatGPT tended to lock onto the “make a game” request and ignore the “integrate modular questions” part of the prompt. What became clear is that ChatGPT’s training has included a lot of arcade-style examples. It is very comfortable producing games that look right, but less capable when asked to stretch into less standard structures. Google Gemini: More Usable Out of the Box Gemini, on the other hand, managed to do what I wanted on the very first attempt. It loaded the quiz file correctly, integrated it with the game, and displayed real questions in the middle of gameplay. Cleaner structure: The game was more modular and easier to adapt. Responsive to prompts: When I asked for visual changes — more authentic Space Invaders graphics, faster enemy speeds, clearer “game over” states — it delivered them. Fewer repeats: Errors still cropped up but Gemini seemed to handle debugging more gracefully. The end result was not perfect, but it was significantly closer to something that could actually be used in a training context. What We Learned About AI in Training This head-to-head test highlighted a few important lessons for anyone interested in using AI in learning and development. AI can generate ideas, not finished productsBoth systems were able to spin up something playable quickly. This shows real potential for AI to support rapid prototyping and brainstorming. Modularity is hardAI often struggles with more complex requirements such as linking external files or reusing structures across multiple games. This is crucial in training where scalability matters. Iteration is essentialYou cannot simply “ask once and receive.” Both tools required repeated clarification, debugging and checks. Human oversight is not optional. Human qualities still matterCreativity, critical thinking and empathy for learners are not found in the AI. Even if the code runs, the learning design still comes from people. Is Vibe Coding Ready for Learning and Development? Right now, vibe coding is fascinating but not reliable. It is best viewed as an experimental tool for generating ideas and quick demos rather than as a replacement for trained developers or instructional designers. This does not mean it has no place. For a trainer wanting to visualise how a quiz game might look, AI can give a rough sketch in minutes. But if you need a stable, scalable product that can actually be rolled out, you will still need human expertise. A Smarter Way Forward While vibe coding is entertaining, most organisations need dependable tools that deliver learning in the formats their people need. That is why Open eLMS Learning Generator exists. Instead of wrestling with AI models to produce half-finished code, you can take your existing content and instantly transform it into video, PowerPoint, podcasts or even arcade-style games. It is fast, multilingual and creates professional content that is ready to deploy. You can try it now with a free 14-day trial. Try Open eLMS Learning Generator The verdict from this test is clear: Gemini currently outperforms ChatGPT for vibe coding training games. Yet both tools still highlight the same truth. AI can inspire and support, but it is not yet the finished solution. The real future of learning lies in combining the creativity of people with AI systems that are robust, transparent and reliable. Until then, tools like Open eLMS are a practical bridge between ambition and delivery.

AI in Training: How to Use Google NotebookLM for Course Creation
The role of artificial intelligence in education and training is expanding at a rapid pace. In our AI in Training series we look at practical applications of AI tools that can make life easier for trainers, teachers and learning and development professionals. Each episode takes a popular AI tool and examines how it works, what it does well, and where it might fall short. In this episode we explore Google NotebookLM, a system designed to help professionals collate, curate and transform content into structured training resources. The Problem: Creating Training Content Efficiently One of the greatest challenges for trainers and learning designers is the time it takes to create professional course materials. Gathering documents, writing lesson plans, and developing supplementary resources such as podcasts, videos and study guides is a process that can take weeks. Most AI tools on the market today can generate content quickly, but they often rely on generic data and do not allow you to anchor learning material to your own sources. This creates a risk of inaccuracy and makes it difficult to ensure courses are specific to your learners’ needs. Google NotebookLM attempts to solve this problem by letting you import your own materials, ringfence them, and then use AI to generate tailored outputs such as schedules, videos, podcasts, mind maps and reports. Google NotebookLM in Action Here is the full walkthrough from our AI in Training series, where we build a time management course using Google NotebookLM. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vAaxt2g1y8g&list=PL2j5qhe5EPJu2z227YRWEkuCgg2xnB0dm Why This Matters for Learning Professionals NotebookLM demonstrates how AI can speed up course creation while still keeping the trainer in control of the source material. Instead of starting from scratch, professionals can: Upload their own documents and data sources Curate information to ensure relevance Generate multiple learning resources from a single notebook Save time while still producing accurate, professional content For trainers, teachers and L&D teams this means less time spent on manual course development and more time available for teaching, coaching and learner engagement. This is not about replacing trainers, but about equipping them with smarter tools that extend their capability. There’s Another Way: Open eLMS Learning Generator At Open eLMS we believe that AI should empower learning professionals to create engaging, multimodal courses quickly and effectively.

How to Make Your LMS The Smartest Tool in Your Company
For many organisations, the Learning Management System (LMS) has long been viewed as a functional necessity. It stores training records, delivers compliance courses, and keeps track of certifications. Useful, yes, but rarely exciting. For years, it has been treated as a back-office requirement rather than a strategic asset. However, the landscape is changing. Advances in artificial intelligence have created a new opportunity: to transform the LMS from a static repository into a living, breathing source of business intelligence. Imagine a system that does more than store your learning content. Imagine an LMS that can instantly answer questions, deliver training exactly when it is needed, and guide your workforce with insights drawn directly from your organisation’s own knowledge base. That is exactly what Enterprise AI is designed to do. Why the Shift?

AI Is Accelerating Fast. Are We Ready for Superintelligence?
AI is no longer a future concept. It is not hypothetical. It is not even five years out. The reality is this: superintelligence is coming, and it is coming fast. We are seeing a surge in AI capabilities that are already reshaping education, the workplace, healthcare, and even defence. But while the breakthroughs are impressive, they come with something far more serious. A warning. Not from conspiracy theorists. From the very minds who built these systems. People are walking away from billion-pound companies like OpenAI and Google. Not to take a break. But to sound the alarm. Because the question is no longer, can we build it? We can. That train already left the station. The real question is: can we control it? Why the World’s Brightest Minds Are Hitting the Brakes Some of the most respected researchers in AI are now turning into whistleblowers. PhDs. Former Google engineers. OpenAI veterans. These are people who dedicated their careers to building intelligent systems, only to realise that the speed and scale of what they have built could spin out of control. You do not leave a billion-pound rocket unless you believe it is going to hit a mountain. These experts are not worried about whether the AI works. They are worried that it works too well, without ethical guardrails to stop it from causing harm. AI systems do not think like humans. They do not care how they achieve a goal, only that they do. Ask an AI to solve world hunger? If the system is not aligned with human values, the “solution” could be to eliminate the hungry people. Technically effective. Morally terrifying. From Science Fiction to the Factory Floor This is not a distant, science fiction future. We are already building autonomous drones, robot weapons, and decision-making systems with no clear off-switch. Some countries are deploying AI tools in defence without meaningful oversight. There are no global rules. No framework. No fail-safes. The same tech that can write your emails can also fly a combat drone. We are handing enormous power to code and hoping it turns out alright. That is not strategy. That is roulette. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oPSMG8F5rOE The Flip Side: Why AI Could Still Save Us There is good news. The same technology that could destroy us could also help us thrive. In education, AI is already transforming how people access personalised learning. It automates the dull tasks. It adapts to the learner. It builds real-time feedback loops that once cost thousands to implement. What used to require a team of ten instructional designers can now be done with one smart educator and the right AI tool. The result is faster, better, more relevant learning experiences. And no, AI does not replace teachers. It frees them. From admin. From grading. From endless content production. So they can do what humans do best: connect, guide, and inspire. The same shift is happening in healthcare, research, and creative industries. Wherever we want more of something—like knowledge, health, or innovation—AI is proving to be a powerful multiplier. So What Do We Do Now? It is tempting to panic. But panic is not a plan. What we need now is leadership. Smart policy. International standards. And above all, public education. We must understand what we are building. We must ask the right questions. Because this is not a test run. When the real decisions come, we need to be ready, ethically, politically, and intellectually. That starts by staying informed. Staying aware. And not handing control to those who treat AI like a toy or a marketing gimmick. Superintelligence Is Coming. Let’s Get Smarter If we do this right, AI could unlock the best version of ourselves. It could lift billions out of poverty. Cure diseases. Democratise learning. Raise our collective potential. But if we ignore the risks and let it run wild, we will get what we deserve. The choice is still ours. But not for much longer. Let’s not sleepwalk into history.
