Wonderfully explained. I have a paper on my internship to turn in in a few weeks. While I'm definitely not bad at writing it myself, I'll definitely be using these techniques to increase the quality of it!
I liked how you teached both how to make a simple presentation from code and how to prompt chatgpt (3.5!) to achieve it by making it change seats. It would have been interesting to let ChatGPT iterate on this process several times, like update the presentation, review again as the CEO, until it cannot "improve it" anymore. Good job, subscribed ! And I agree : AI is not about making the world colder, it's about teaching us how to be better humans, because we have those models which gather a lot of wisdom and knowledge that can benefit anyone. We live in such a world where this is possible, having a "program" which knows a LOT of things, and which can help us reason and think better by giving us insights, help and assistance. It's nothing short from amazing :)
So glad you enjoyed the video! And I absolutely agree - with the power of the ChatGPT API, programming in that kind of iteration is definitely possible and worth further exploration!
Excellent - particularly about knowing it can and must be used for human ends. I made endless slide presentations in a Community College back in the seventies and it was a much more laborious process, but the same communication skills applied. Back then I often had to discourage teachers from putting a regular letter sized typed document on an overhead and expecting them to read it. We had a large print typewriter to help! Plus ca change, plu la meme chose.
super cool. now my question is are these slides editable in powerpoint, google slides, figma, etc? for instance, can i move the text around to make space for images and branding?
The MARP tool lets you export as a PDF, HTML, or PPTX (Powerpoint) file. Important note though for the PPTX file: the PPTX file contains pre-rendered images rather than text you can edit. As a workaround, I recommend the following steps: 1. Use MARP to export to PDF 2. Use this free tool from Adobe to convert from PDF to PPTX: www.adobe.com/acrobat/online/pdf-to-ppt.html 3. Edit the resulting PPTX as you normally would (you can now edit text and move it around to make space for images/branding) It's a bit clunky but gives you the flexibility you need
Below are a list of the tools I used and how you can get them: - ChatGPT, the generative AI chatbot developed by OpenAI (chat.openai.com/). Note: You can use this link to register for a free ChatGPT account - MARP, a tool that lets you use markdown code to create slides (marp.app/). Note: You don’t need to download anything from this website. It is just provided here for reference - Visual Studio Code, a code editor that lets you preview how the MARP markdown code looks as slides (code.visualstudio.com/). Note: After downloading and opening Visual Studio Code on your computer, you must download its “MARP for VS Code” plugin, which lets you do all the slide previewing of MARP markdown code (marketplace.visualstudio.com/...)
