You can't read much online, offline or indeed on the broadcast media without discovering a mention of Artificial Intelligence (AI). Of course the narrative, both commercial and government, is that AI will drive everything, solve every problem and cure us of our every ill. And there's precious mention of any pitfalls such as mass unemployment. There's also precious mention of how to manage your presentation with AI. That's a great pity since many of the recent UK government AI briefings have really lacked any of the creativity that most of us associate with AI.
Tips for When You Want to Manage Your Presentation with AI
Because for most of us our main use of AI extends to graphic design and imagery. Yes, our smartphones and many notebook-based apps also contain AI functions, but our primary exposure is imagery. So the web is awash with AI-driven images, advertising, marketing and general communications. And that really hits home when you consider our collective experience on social media. AI imagery is everywhere. Grok from X can certainly perform some serious functions, but it's really quite impressive with imagery.
Manage Your Presentation with SlideSpeak
So we were staggered to see the AI presentation by the current UK government minister for Science, Innovation and Technology, Peter Kyle. Dated and antiquated come to mind, and that was just the slides.
But it doesn't have to be like that. Since your PowerPoint or Keynote slides need to engage your audience and not bore them. These presentation design tips are still on the money, AI or no AI.
Of course when you want to manage your presentation with AI, you have plenty of choice available to you. One favourite is the system offered by SlideSpeak. It offers a handy means of generating a PowerPoint slide deck with simple text inputs. Great fun, indeed!
ChatGPT Presentation Management
The SlideSpeak platform is powered by ChatGPT and allows you to upload documents in a variety of formats that can be swiftly processed by the bots. Choose a PowerPoint template and your slide deck is prepared and is ready for download in the latest MS PowerPoint format. It's all very slick and very much a time-saver.
If we have a concern, it's also simple. Use AI to perform the most labour-intensive role of formatting and preparing your slide material. But don't overlook your role in making your PowerPoint slides fit for your audience. Editing and ordering is essential. And, of course, your delivery of the presentation is down to you…for now at least. And finally, just a reminder that not all presentation apps survive. Swipe didn't.
