I Stopped Using PowerPoint Once I Learned This Claude Method

The podcast details a method for creating AI-powered presentations using code instead of traditional software like PowerPoint. It begins by emphasizing the uniqueness and customizability of code-generated visuals, highlighting AI's coding capabilities. The process involves writing a script, setting up a Claude project with a specific system prompt, and using Opus 4.5 for optimal performance. The host advises editing within Claude for a limited number of iterations before downloading the HTML file for further refinement using tools like Cursor or Claude Code. The presenter also describes how to fix errors within Cursor by using a browser tab. Finally, the podcast explains how to share the presentation via GitHub Pages, ensuring the files are at the root of the repository and named "index.html".
