I always write my slides in HTML (with RevealJS) and I started trying out Copilot yesterday for the first time while working on a slide deck about Docker. I was really impressed with how much it helped me fill in the slides, both in terms of the HTML and the content. It probably helped that I had other slide decks in the same repo (if it checks other files?) and that I often write the key outline slides first. So, if anyone else writes slides in HTML or Markdown, try out Copilot for a helping hand.

*Disclosure: I work for Microsoft.

This seems like a great way to make a boring, unfocused presentation. Not bad for generating filler, or a presentation that could be done poorly by a college freshman without any speaking experience. The slide comments are more opinionated, and better but the slides themselves are bland.

For example, I generated one for "Why use Hacker News": https://slidesgpt.com/l/X3sU

Why would anyone use ChatGPT for anything they like doing, its like sucking the last joy from life

People's slide decks are already bad and have too much text. Not sure how this is going fix that.
