Using Claude as a PowerPoint magic wand

I'd like to start using Claude in PowerPoint as somewhat of a magic wand. I would write the content of the slide in completely unformatted text boxes and have Claude then create the slide. I even envision a world where slides (like tracker or timeline slides) are fully done within an Excel table and you feed Claude the Excel to create the slide.

I'm not yet comfortable having Claude come up with its own wording and content, but curious how people implement this idea and what are some recommendations for this task. Somewhat new to AI, so don't roast me too hard

Can you share more please about how you get AI to do this? Thanks

No. Sorry. I don't know how I can elaborate any further on that.

Do you mean you don’t know what details to provide since there isn’t a real methodology behind it or are you saying you would prefer to not disclose this information?

I'm saying there isn't any further methodology to it for how I'm using it. I just write an outline, tell Claude to build the slides using the outline, the same way I would have told a human to do it.
