The AI made my slide deck from my handout and my own template

He had already written the handout for an upcoming presentation. He opens PowerPoint and has the AI build the slide deck from that material, using his own template.

How it works

  1. Writes the handout for the presentation
  2. Opens PowerPoint
  3. Asks the AI to create the slide deck from the handout material, using his own template

Why it’s worth knowing

He does not start from a blank deck. The AI builds the slides from the handout he already wrote, in the template he already uses.
