One reason I seldom use AI to generate presentation slidedecks

 I use AI for a variety of purposed, but today, I still can't bring myself to use AI for generating a presentation slidedeck. One reason is that the visuals that accompany the text on each slide are often irrelevant. 

Just now, I tried out Prezi's new AI function. I uploaded my recent OUP presentation PPT to convert it to a Prezi-style presentation. Again, the visuals generated are mostly irrelevant, as in the following example. I did mention teaching students question stems to use when they interact with a chatbot for the purpose of clarifying a grammar/vocab issue. And Prezi did include my examples, and added another point. But look at the accompanying image: What has it got to do with question stems?
