Ask HN: What do you think about AI generated slides for conferences?
2 points by Hixon10 6 hours ago | 1 comments
As in many other areas (e.g. code, emails, PRs, blog posts), people have started using LLMs to generate slides for their conference talks (e.g., set of HTML pages as a talk).

On the one hand, the slides look tidy, neat, and precise, with infographics, plots, dashboards, and so on. Nothing to complain about.

On the other hand, they look, hm, like LLM generated web sites, like soulless, if I may say so. I don't know why, but I don't enjoy reading them, even though they probably provide more value than hand crafted.

What's your current take?

    Management at my company have started using AI to generate slides, reports, you name it. And it’s clear they didn’t create or even read them properly. It comes off as lazy and unprofessional. Like, it’s your job to create this stuff and you’re not spending time on it.
