OpenAI Buys NextSlide: ChatGPT Gets Presentation Power

OpenAI has acquired NextSlide, a startup specializing in using artificial intelligence to transform notes and research into finished presentations. This deal suggests where OpenAI plans to take ChatGPT next. The acquisition was quiet, with the announcement surfacing months after the deal closed. NextSlide’s founder, Ahmed Beshry, confirmed the move, stating his team is now working directly on ChatGPT within OpenAI. NextSlide's technology converts prompts, notes, or documents into polished, editable presentations. The financial terms of the acquisition were not disclosed. This move could mean future ChatGPT users will find it much easier to create professional presentations quickly.
