Draft a Five-Slide Outline with ChatGPT, Then Build It in PowerPoint for the Web

Most of the time spent on a short internal presentation goes into staring at an empty slide and deciding what the title should be. The content usually exists already, in notes or a report. What is missing is the structure.

TL;DR: Ask ChatGPT for a fixed shape (five slides, one title and three key lines each), then paste each slide's title and lines into PowerPoint.

In my test, one line of material produced a five-slide outline in about four seconds, and it became five slides in PowerPoint for the web.

PowerPoint for the web has no feature that splits a pasted outline into separate slides. Pasting per slide is the reliable route there. It is still faster than writing from scratch, because the titles and points are already decided.

"Only a title and three lines, no other explanation" is the part that saves the most time. The answer then contains just what goes on the slides, so every copy is a straight paste with nothing to trim first.
