ChatBA Practical Experience

The first time I heard of ChatBA, is a colleague Wang in the pantry yelled: “Now with AI can say a word with PPT!” I was in the heart of the “meh” a - these years by a variety of AI tools fooled less, PPT, such as both logic and aesthetic work, AI can understand the whole? Until that fateful business trip last month. Presentation

I'm on a high speed train, and I'm being rushed. I don't have my laptop with me, and I only have a cell phone at hand. I searched ChatBA, the interface is simple, like a small food ordering program, and the input box reads, “What PPT do you want?” I bit my back teeth and knocked: “College students job interview skills training, to be practical, not too fancy.”

Thirty seconds, just thirty seconds. A 10-page PowerPoint “clunked” in front of my eyes. Cover, table of contents, analysis of common interview errors, STAR rule explanation, the end of the Q & A... The structure is actually decent! Layout did not deviate into a killer style. My heart was on fire: did I really find a treasure this time?

Turned to the “interview dress code advice” page, the picture is a bright purple suit, tie fluorescent green “elite men”, the background is also floating in the colorful clouds... Party A to see this, I guess I thought I changed my profession to engage in wedding ceremonies. Then look carefully at the content, “technical post interview to show code ability” under this paragraph, AI thoughtfully with a ... cartoon monkeys knocking the keyboard picture. Well, at least the monkey is cute.

ChatBA Pros and Cons:

“fast” is really fast, but “accurate” depends on luck：I asked it to redo a dress code picture, describing “plain dark suit, white shirt, simple tie”. The result was a portrait with a swollen tie knot that looked like it had been stung by a bee, and a shirt collar that was missing half of its collar! In the end, I honestly searched the internet and uploaded the picture.

Changing text is more tiring than doing it： Tried to bold and redden the “eye contact” line. But man, either the whole page turns red, or I can't get that line to work. I feel like I'm fighting a stubborn donkey.

Switching templates is like opening a blind box： Tired of seeing the blue business style, change the “vibrant orange”. A change in the end of the stupid: the original neat form squeezed into a QR code, carefully aligned icons have collectively left home, scattered all over the place. Well, you have to manually drag them back one by one.

Data charts? Don't give it a hard time：Try asking it to make a bar chart of the salary increase of graduates in the last three years. The data is made up (as expected), and the height of the bar doesn't match the number at all (which is too much). The best part is that the legend says “unit: yuan”, but the numbers on the columns are ‘10K’, “15K”... AI brother, can we standardize our tone? No?

The thing that cracks me up the most is collaboration. When I pulled a coworker together to make a change online, I just adjusted the headline position on my side, and my coworker messaged me, "Where did you move it? My side is all messed up!" The latency was so high that it was like playing a trans-oceanic online game. What's even more devastating is that my colleague accidentally deleted a page of carefully adjusted flowchart, history? It doesn't exist. Can only tearfully redo from memory, that moment really want to smash the phone.

As for the official “conch video tutorials” ... I believe in evil, according to the tutorials want to do a simple product features dynamic PPT. generated out of the effect, like twenty years ago with Windows Movie Maker to do: the product picture spinning around suddenly stuttered, the text like a cramp! Like popping out, the background music and the screen each play their own. Do you want to rely on this to calm down your customers? Why don't you just tell them a monologue?

Scenarios for ChatBA

If you have a PowerPoint due at 9am tomorrow morning, and you're still on your phone - don't hesitate to open up ChatBA, type in the subject, and in 30 seconds you'll at least have something you can turn in, which is better than nothing.

If you're a small business owner, you need a simple framework for a project presentation to impress...no, to impress potential partners. It's a quick way to build a framework, and you can fill in the content yourself (don't rely on it for critical data!). .

If you hate PPT layout alignment, and you want AI to help you put text and images roughly where they belong, not to be delicate, but just to have - it can make do.

If you need some inspiration for a “look-alike” image, even if it turns out to be a weirdo in a purple suit or a monkey on a keyboard... it opens up the mind? (reassures self)

This month, I've used ChatBA to catch up on four or five urgent jobs: a club recruitment speech, a community waste classification initiative, a dinosaur knowledge tabloid for my nephew... It's true that it hasn't kept me from staring at blank PPTs late at night until dawn. But it definitely didn't save me any trouble either - every time, it was just patching on the “AI-generated drafts”, and the time spent on tinkering was sometimes not much less than doing it myself from scratch.

It's like a careless intern with a lot of ideas: it helps you make a quick start, build a framework, and even pop up the occasional funny idea (like the monkey?). It can help you get a quick start, build a framework, and even pop up an interesting idea (like the monkey?). But to expect it to independently complete a PPT that can be taken to a serious presentation, bidding, or lecturing to students, unless you have a big heart, or the client/teacher/audience has a bigger heart.

Is it worth it? Depends on what you figure. Want to completely free your hands and say goodbye to PPT? Want to find a desperate situation to pull you a hand, to give you a rough but can change the “rough room” of the helpers, ChatBA can be stuffed into the favorites to eat dust, and so on the next time the fire, it will be like a not too reliable but better than none of the stronger than an old friend, there waiting for you.

(Oh yeah, last friendly tip: use a computer browser! The cell phone changes can make you doubt your life. The free version can only be played three times a day, and when you run out of it, it pops up to sell classes, and the enthusiasm is comparable to that of the salesman at the gym downstairs.)
