What is SlidesGPT?

Slides GPT is an AI-powered tool that can be used to create presentations from text or a given topic. It can generate images and create entire presentations or individuals slides, including descriptions and layouts.

How can I use SlidesGPT?

SlidesGPT has many uses, including:

  • Generating content: Slides GPT can create entire presentations or individual slides, including images, descriptions, and layouts.
  • Translating documents: Slides GPT can translate documents into more than 30 languages.
  • Creating images: Slides GPT can create images that relate to the presentation's content.
  • Organizing content: Slides GPT can help organize presentations by creating outlines.

Why should I take care when using SlidesGPT?

While generative AI tools can help users with such tasks as creating and incorporating online content into presentations, certain AI tools like Slides GPT have been used in the production of images, videos, or audio recordings that have been edited using an algorithm to replace the person in the original with someone else in a way that makes it look real. Also known as "deepfakes," these fabrications can be used to harass, intimidate, demean and undermine people. Deepfakes can also be used to create misinformation and confusion about important issues, and thus are particularly dangerous.

Another major concern with using Slides GPT and other generative AI tools to make presentations centers on the issue of privacy. When training AI, a major privacy concern is the potential for sensitive personal information to be used without proper consent, leading to issues like unauthorized access, discriminatory outcomes, and a general lack of transparency about the ways in which the information of the user is shared with or collected by AI. More specifically, most generative AI tools like Slides GPT owe their ability to generate new information to their exposure to and training on large amounts of user data. In using Slides GPT and other generative AI tools to craft presentations, users may unwittingly share personal or sensitive information. To complicate matters, the privacy policies of some generative AI tools, such as that maintained by Slides GPT, empowers AI developers to sell whatever information they collect about users to third parties. Even if a user does not share personally identifying information with Slides GPT or another generative AI tool, the mere act of using the AI tool subjects the user to the risk of re-identification, as the information they share with the AI tool may contain patterns that allow for third party actors to make inferences about the provider of the data, thus enabling them to link it back to a specific individual.
