TL;DR: OpenAI is rolling out ChatGPT Slides to eligible Pro, Business and Enterprise users with Space access, on the web and in the desktop app. ChatGPT builds an editable deck from a conversation, files or an outline; teammates can edit it at the same time and comment; and you can present from ChatGPT or export to PowerPoint, PDF or Google Slides. Some Windows desktop setups get a PowerPoint file instead of a shared deck.

What happened

OpenAI’s ChatGPT release notes now list “Create and collaborate on slides in ChatGPT.” OpenAI says Slides lets you “create presentations and keep working on them with your team in Space,” starting “from a conversation, files, or an outline,” or from an example deck that guides “the style and layout.”

According to the release notes and OpenAI’s help article:

  • Create and edit. You can edit text, images, shapes, tables and charts directly, or select an element, choose Request edits and tell ChatGPT what to change.
  • Work together. People with edit access can work on the same deck at the same time and leave shared comments. You can @mention ChatGPT, or your dot, to make changes. “Comment-only access isn’t available at launch.” (OpenAI’s feature page describes view, comment and edit roles, but the help article says comment-only isn’t available yet.)
  • Present or export. You can present from ChatGPT. On the web you can export to PowerPoint, PDF or Google Slides. In the desktop app you can open the deck in PowerPoint or Keynote if they’re installed.
  • Who gets it. Slides is “rolling out to eligible Pro, Business, and Enterprise users with Space access on the web and in the desktop app.” To start, OpenAI says to ask ChatGPT in Work to create a presentation in Space.

Why it matters

For a small team that already pays for ChatGPT Business, this can replace a round of copying notes into a deck by hand: draft from the meeting notes, fix it together, export to the format your client uses.

The limits matter as much as the features. It’s not on Free, Go or Plus. Everyone who edits needs Space access. Viewers who should only comment can’t be set up that way yet, so anyone you invite to give feedback can also edit. And the help article says Windows desktop users without a required “MXC component” get a PowerPoint (.pptx) file instead of a shared deck. Windows 10 doesn’t support it, and Windows 11 may need an update or an admin to enable it.

What to do

  1. Check you have it. Look for Slides in Space or ask ChatGPT in Work for a presentation. OpenAI says it’s still rolling out, so it may not show up yet.
  2. Give it a template. Share an example deck so the layout and style match yours, as OpenAI suggests.
  3. Think before inviting reviewers. With no comment-only access at launch, anyone you share with for feedback can change the slides. Share a PDF export with people who should only look.
  4. On Windows, use the web. If the desktop app gives you a .pptx file instead of a shared deck, OpenAI’s fix is cloud mode or ChatGPT on the web.
  5. Check the numbers. OpenAI says to review “the text, figures, and layout before sharing or presenting,” and to check exports after opening them. Treat AI-made charts as drafts until you’ve matched them to the source data.
