News of the week. 📰
OpenAI release Canvas, and it’s BIG.
If you’re a heavy ChatGPT user like me, you’re going to love this.
While ChatGPT is user-friendly, it can also be challenging, particularly when trying to focus on specific sections of text.
The recently introduced Canvas feature represents an interesting development in ChatGPT's interface. It notably enhances our ability to collaborate with AI for both writing and programming tasks.
What is ChatGPT Canvas?
Canvas is a new feature that adds an editable workspace alongside the chat interface. It allows ChatGPT to directly edit and comment on your work, rather than just responding in a chat format.
With Canvas, you can:
Highlight specific sections to indicate exactly what you want ChatGPT to focus on.
Make changes directly to your text or code.
Revert to previous versions if needed.
Adjust writing style, length, and other elements in just two clicks.
I can already tell you that this feature is going to be a massive time-saver for me.
Canvas is currently available in beta to all paying ChatGPT subscribers.

Creating presentation with AI in minutes.
I’m about to say something controversial.
I actually like PowerPoint.
I know, I know – you might be thinking I'm a total weirdo.
But hear me out before you judge.
During my agency days, I found slide design oddly therapeutic. There's an undeniable satisfaction in transforming hours of research and strategy into a compelling visual narrative.
However, the real issues with PowerPoint and presentations are:
They're time-consuming. A single deck can devour your entire week.
They're overused. People request presentations for practically everything (even when they're unnecessary).
Audience engagement is often low. Most people aren't fully attentive during presentations.
All those hours spent tweaking fonts and debating slide transitions add up, while your core product work accumulates.
I'm sure many of you can relate.
Presentations can indeed become a major distraction.
Fortunately, AI has arrived to help draft impressive presentations in minutes, allowing you to focus on what truly matters: uncovering and sharing exciting insights.
In this article, I'll introduce you to a tool I frequently use.
