The Impact of Artificial Intelligence in Presentations

1. Introduction

Unlike most technologies today, AI is no longer in the initial stages of development. We are not in our great-grandparents’ era where we see the first jumbo jet and think, “Wow, cool!” We are now in the stages where we have to decide just how much AI we want in our society. This used to be a very black and white topic when the concept was still in its infancy stages. But now there are so many different areas and levels of AI that we may need to reconsider previous decisions and re-evaluate AI. This paper will continue to discuss this but also present the creation and showing of a visual presentation on AI using AI. This brings on tons of new ethical questions but is a key way in exemplifying the status of AI and how it can be used in today’s society. This will also provide an insightful experiment where we spend a day taking in-depth notes on how many times we were directly or indirectly influenced by an AI-related technology, henceforth proving just how much AI is integrated into our lives and then examining if our societal integration of AI is a good thing.

2. Benefits of AI in Presentations

2.1 Advanced Planning & Structuring Sequencing a presentation’s intended message can be quite a tough job. Surely there is intention to build up momentum slowly from the introduction, reaching a climax at some point, and then to slowly ease the audience back down from the climax to the end of the presentation. However, it is not a rare case that presenters become too engrossed in their presentation of facts that it becomes very much like reading from a textbook. The next thing they would realize is a bunch of puzzled faces in front of them. This suggests that the presentation of facts might not be as effective as initially thought, therefore it is very crucial to have the intended message of the presentation properly understood by the audience. Two presentations of a similar topic can have very different effects depending on how the message is being brought. AI can help facilitate this intention through establishing a logic model. Through the use of model mapping techniques, relations of various elements contributing to a particular goal can be defined and represented in diagrams or charts. This can help a presenter get a bird’s eye view of how to link the various points in their presentation to steadily bring across the intended message.

Summary: It is known that artificial intelligence (AI) is causing an impact in a wide variety of fields, and presentation provision generally is no exception. One might ask, what could AI have an effect on in delivering presentations, or how can it help presenters specifically in better delivering their points across? Here is some of AI’s contribution and benefits:

3. Challenges and Limitations

– Presentation may exceed the time or become too fast if the learning algorithm is not correctly tuned. – One of the most difficult tasks involving presentations is the generation of appropriate auxiliary content, such as diagrams, charts or similar visual aids. While automatic slide creation is a reasonably well understood task, creating effective visual aids is a far more complex problem. Even for an intelligent system, a good understanding of the underlying concepts is required in order to choose or create relevant images. Current work with intelligent presentation systems has shown that even when no specific knowledge representation for visual aids exists, it is possible to use the main talking points of a slide to retrieve images from the internet that are relevant to the slide content. This can be achieved …

4. Best Practices for AI-Enhanced Presentations

Today, there are countless ways to incorporate artificial intelligence in our presentations. Thus, when building AI models which can be used to enhance presentations, it’s important to identify the best. It should be noted that the students are the main audience, and teachers are the main users of these practices. So, to help guide the students to make the best tools possible in a simple manner, we have identified an excellent paper by Azza Abouzied which has 5 simple guidelines explaining the best practices in developing AI for student use cases: “Why Students don’t use AI and What that means for AI in education”. Based on those points, they outline the best practices of enhancing student presentations with AI. The first and most important thing for students when presenting is being able to convey their ideas in an effective and simple manner. This means they need to understand the topic of the presentation deeply and be able to translate that understanding to their intended audience in a clear and concise manner. Oftentimes, this can be distorted especially if the student had to resort to using an online translator to help comprehend an article in a foreign language. As many of us already know, the function and usage of online translators can be very clunky and at times produce humorous results. In the past, students have relied too much on these tools where it spits out the translation of the whole article but the student may only understand half of it. AI can help mend this issue with the development of translators which can translate specific blocks of text to another language. This will benefit the student as when he translates something, he can make sure it makes sense by comparing it to the original text.

5. Conclusion

It is clear that the way we present information will continually evolve over time. We have looked at technologies such as PowerPoint and Prezi. Though both have gone from the innovation stage through to the development stage, it is clear to see that the most recent trends are leaning towards more software automation. AI technology is only in its infancy with regard to presentations and slide design. Prezi’s interface for instance, adapting a path as a result of audience feedback, could very well become an AI doing the fixing and improving of slide design automatically. Although it has the potential to put graphic design artists out of a job, those working elsewhere in presentation creation could find AI an invaluable tool for pulling together presentations and for ideas generation. Who knows, maybe one day Siri will be giving you presentation advice.
