Summary:
A bakery in Helsinki took the opportunity to be creative when their cake orders were getting canceled. As Finnish people began to panic and hoard toilet rolls, the bakery decided to demonstrate their creativity by creating a cake that looked like toilet rolls. It took social media by the storm and became the bakery’s lifeline in the past few months. Meanwhile, in Iceland, because of the social distancing rules, the Icelandic Forestry Service suggested an alternative to hugging friends and family members by hugging trees.

2026年，還在用 ChatGPT 玩吉卜力濾鏡就太落伍啦！AI 的發展真的是快到讓人跟不上，本週《英語咖啡館》邀請到《電商讀書會》的 Cariya，要帶大家認識目前 Google 最強大的 AI 工具：Gemini 3 Pro 與影像生成神器 Nano Banana 3 Pro。如果你曾覺得 AI 生成的照片總是有點「假」，或是圖片裡的中文字變成亂碼，那你一定要聽聽這一集，看現在的技術多麼驚人！

除了介紹工具外，本集我們也探討了去年 AI 的核心關鍵字"Reasoning"（推理能力），這讓下指令（Prompt）變得更像在說「人話」。我們也聊到了現在的 AI 如何在短短 10 秒內產出專業攝影棚等級的視覺效果，以及為什麼現在的行銷圈已經開始用 AI 背景來取代傳統的實地外拍。這些變革不只提升效率，也改變了數位行銷的遊戲規則。

In 2026, if you're still using ChatGPT to play with Ghibli filters, you're way behind! AI development is really advancing so fast that it's hard to keep up. This week on English Cafe, we've invited Cariya to introduce everyone to Google's most powerful AI tools: Gemini 3 Pro and the image generation marvel Nano Banana 3 Pro. If you've ever felt that AI-generated photos always look a bit "fake," or the Chinese text in images turns into gibberish, you definitely need to listen to this episode to see how amazing the technology is now!

Beyond introducing the tools, in this episode we also explore last year's core AI keyword "Reasoning," which has made giving prompts more like speaking "human language." We also discuss how current AI can produce professional studio-level visual effects in just 10 seconds, and why the marketing world has now started using AI backgrounds to replace traditional on-location photo shoots. These transformations not only improve efficiency but also change the game rules of digital marketing.
