Is This AI Presentation Maker the Future of Academic Presentations?

you can now make academic presentations using AI this is how I would do it the first thing I would do is go over to gamma. apppp that is the app we're going to be using to create our AI presentations not affiliated not sponsored I think this is a really great one though this is the easiest thing you can do the first thing is if you are working on a paper like a peer-reviewed paper to to submit to a journal which you should always be doing by the way you can just put this in as a file and it will generate its own presentation based on the draft of the paper currently writing and that's really easy you go here to import a file this is the one I'm working on at the moment this is um a paper from my last postto before I was fired um and uh here we are this is what we were working on and you can see that it's not finished it's got lots of text it's got tables it's got uh lots of graphs so here we can see what uh gamma AI will do with this so we'll upload a file we'll click here and we'll upload the seed layer article that's really easy we open it here and then you can see we get into loads of options those options will not really dictate what's in there but it will sort of dictate the quality of the um presentation and give you lots of options as well so here we are this is the seed layer article that I want to uh transform into a presentation and I click continue and then they start configuring and working with your file so here we've got the settings which is what you should start with first so you've got generate condense and preserve here we want to condense because we've got a lot of content that we need to condense and you can see it's got all of this uh information here now I have upgraded to Pro so I don't know why this one's down here it was only $10 for a month um and here I've got card by card so you can see here it's saying well this card is based on this stuff and then as we scroll down blah blah blah blah blah BL one card total well that's not what we want is it so we'll go here to free form and now we go Max text per card now this is best for a presentation we've got brief medium or detailed so we can go to brief cuz I want it to be super brief and then I can talk about it using um my own words as opposed to just reading from a slide which is really boring for everyone involved um and then we got output we got AI images um we're not really going to be too concerned about these because it's going to produce images where it thinks it should produce images but they are a bit rubbish we're going to work with that a little bit later and then we've also got image model and where we want to grab it from not important for us I don't think and then all we have to do is pick a theme we go through choose a theme that we like I like this one and then we'll say generate and you will see it generate the slides live in front of your meaty eyes and this is what it comes up with so it's saying here this is the total slide and look at this rubbish photo no that's rubbish it's not very scientific but that's all right we're not using this for the um for the photos we're using it for the content so here metallic adhesive layers so we've got that one we've got optimizing uh silver thickness and then we've got seed layer effects on reflectant then we've got morphology and adhesion so it has done a pretty good job at separating out the things that we would want to talk about and so then we've got adhesion mechanisms we've got optimal seed layer and conclusion so look this is a good structure but it's not done a couple of things so the first thing it's not really done is put graphs in from our actual paper so this is where we would need to grab this one copy it across we can put it into this slideshow by using the interface on the web app so we can go here and just say add an image upload an image and then put an image in or what I like to do is download it so we can go up here and we can say export and then we can export it to PowerPoint brilliant then I can work with that a little bit later this is a really sort of like quick shortcut of getting design and getting the content and getting the story structure in one place and then after that you can work on getting the data properly presented in an outside program like PowerPoint but this is not my favorite way to do it at all this is my favorite way to work with this app I don't think gamma AI is very good at coming up with the story structure a really robust sort of narrative that you can talk about during a presentation so I prefer to use chat GPT first the first thing I do is head over to chat gp4 this is the one that I've paid for with my hard-earned YouTube money and here I am I'm saying I creating a presentation for my PhD to attend a conference give it as much context as it needs to do a good job and need some help create a structure can you help uh with this text that was a bit rubbish prompt it but it did all right can you help with this text from a recent paper I wrote perfect okay so we got Pathway to high throughput lowcost indium 3 transparent electrodes and all I did was take this entire paper and I all I did was go select all go contrl a there we are and I just copied and pasted it all across into here so I didn't actually like format it I didn't sort of like say I want the abstract on the introduction I just sort of like mashed it all in and said do your best and it did do its best and this is why I like using this as a first Port of core for creating the narrative structure and blah blah blah blah blah there it is or there there it is come on now come on what a long paper okay we at the references and there we go okay and there it says for creating a structured presentation for your PhD conference based on your paper you can organize into these slides title slide introduction objective and I was like yeah okay this is very very sort of like high level give me the actual content so here I said create an outline of slides for content with 10 slides good another great prompt Dandy well done certainly here's more detailed outline so here we go this is what I was actually interested in title slide presentation introduction research objective so all of these are actually look you can see it's got actual details in it and this is what I wanted to use to put into gamma uh AI so I copied and pasted all of this across so there's this option where you can go paste in text so I went here pasted in the text and I went through that exact same process so then this is what happened I went here and this was the output and you can see it is a much more detailed um I think a much more well-rounded story than the one that was a little bit kind of just like um a little bit of a scatter shot of the content that I wanted here I've got a nice flow a much better flow in my opinion so we've got the need for transparent electr which is like the background we got the research objective and you can see it's got bullet points and then it's got materials and methods you can see it actually has a go it sort of like saying how I created these transparent electrodes which I like but obviously here I would just put the schematic of the process that I used and I uh generated throughout my research so then we've got electrode fabrication process which is great once again I would just use the images that I've got but this is a good start key results so figure of Merit advantages performance testing this is with opv devices once again um good bullet points but I can flesh this out much much more with actual detail and data and then conclusions and future directions so I think overall this is a really great start it's much better than just giving it the word document we've allowed chat GPT to sort of like work with the narrative a little bit more lovely and now this is what I did I went and I said give me uh this in a PowerPoint presentation and here is the PowerPoint presentation now you can see that this is the PowerPoint presentation and there's plenty of space for doing other stuff and get rid of it made with gamma no I can't go um but you can see that over here yeah I've got all of this space I can play about with these slides and importantly I can take the information that I want so from this one I can say know what I want this schematic so I can go in grab that schematic if I wanted capture it and then in PowerPoint where would I put it just down here materials and methods I can say actually I want that in there and I can't do that because I need to save it first enable saving there we are now we're talking this is the stuff made of Dreams can I get R made with Gamino I can yes you don't even need to pay for the full subscription if you want to get rid of that made with gamma okay where were we going device electrode fabrication process this is where I want it there we are so I can put in my uh my thing and I can play about with the design I can may maybe even have this at the top oh no this is going to take way longer than I thought it was going to okay I could have that one at the top and then I could that one underneath and perfect we're starting to work with the data we've got sometimes you don't have the full story to work with when you do a presentation your supervisor comes to you and says you're going to this conference and you're like oh my god do I have enough data do I not have enough data trust me you've always got data that you can present and a story you can tell but you can use AI to make it super obvious for you and this is how you do that let's say you've been working for a few months on your PhD you've got a few graphs they're a bit scattered they're a bit weird but you need to do a presentation this is what I would do first of all I would put in whatever I had as an image file to chat gp4 the one you have to pay for and uh I would upload these so here you can see I've got four figures this one is AFM data this is IV curves this is uh wavelengths of certain materials after they've been heated so these are just like random things I've put in there and I've asked this I said I'm attending a conference and have to give a presentation here is the data I have collected can you help me craft a compelling story from these figures and then it does such a great job this is why I love chat GPT Vision it just knows um what the these are about based on the text in the images which is just fantastic so here it says it looks like you have a rich set of experimental data oh thank you very much chat GPT saying all the right words and it says these materials are commonly used in the production of opv cells which is correct your data includes Atomic Force microscopy current density voltage characteristic UV vs and x-ray defraction patterns here's a story that we can use so here we go we got introduction to materials objective of the study experimental methods this is what I would use use to generate the first draft of my presentation and if you can see down here I said can you give me the content for 10 slides based on the structure above this is what I wanted I wanted the actual text that I would put in here so it says certainly here is a detail breakdown for 10 slide presentation and all I did was take this I copied and pasted all of that in for 10 slides 10 slides one slide per minute so that's what I was working on for a 10minute sort of like quick presentation that quite often PhD students give because you end up with like 5 minutes for questions too many people put too much information in their presentations they talk for too long they don't have time for questions make sure you're on the little bit of a shorter side trust me um it's much better to have time at the end than to rush through your slides because just pancks everyone in the crowd um so all I did was take now back to this by the way um I will take all of this we'll copy it across and so then I would go to new paste in text then I would paste in the text here and I would say presentation and I'd say continue and then we'd wait we'd allow the AI Gods to do what they had to do oh that was quick um and then we've got this generate okay no I want to condense or I want to preserve so reformat while keeping your original content let's try that no we'll always try our best to preserve your content we can't guarantee an exact match excellent thanks very much then I've got presentation format I don't want carard size to be fluid I want this exporting to PowerPoint or Google slides and then I'm going to say continue and I want that says 10 cards there we are and we're just going to oh first of all we're going to do the um the design stuff okay here we go what do I want what professional let's have a look at professional okay body that one that's pretty professional I like that one boom now we wait we enter the AI God Realm here it is spitting it out in front of me it's doing such a good job there we are slide one already done slide two already done slide three slide four and this is how it works so I'm very impressed with how it can just sort of like mash stuff together to make a presentation and then what I would do like you saw before I would take this and I would then take it to PowerPoint and I would work on it in there this is how I would use AI to create academic presentations super easy you should be thinking about using something like this too because it takes away all of those first steps that are really annoying and hold you up you can take this work it with it in PowerPoint and start working on the important things which is generating the story putting the graphs in making sure it's obvious to your audience exactly what you're talking about that is what you need to do if you like this video and you're doing a presentation soon check out this one where I talk about how to deliver a killer presentation in academic circles make sure you're remembered for all the right reasons go check it out for
