As an attendee my personal pet peeve is that an increasing number of my fellow speakers at conferences are now using AI-generated slide decks, which are inevitably full of
- unneeded AI visuals
and
- huge walls of AI prose that are completely impossible to read at a distance
I do not understand why those slide-generator startups overdo it so much, when it seems the "one visual per slide" paradigm is both a much better experience for the audience, and would also be so much easier to generate.
- an0malous 1y agoI think the founders of these startups and the users who use their products just don’t care about or notice details. They press a button, see some slides that look nice at a glance, and ship it. They’re vibe working.
- tomsmeding 1y agoThat sounds like a good, easy to spot indicator that these people do not care about quality. :)
- an0malous 1y agomaybe they're right not to though. we're in an era of capitalism where C+ quality maximizes profit efficiency
