It's so interesting to me that we have the strange institutional cultural habits around presentation+ rather than doing what is good for the audience.

I think the issue here is photo realistic.

There something inherently a bit icky about a thing that looks like a photo but isn't. - no matter how it's made.

If it's more abstract in any way, that implies creativity, imagination - things the bots can't actually do, just fake, and therefore ick.

This is foundational to the way we address anything in the skillset. It's all just tools to help you achieve a goal. Different folks have access to and are comfy using different tools.

Doesn't matter how you get the end result of an engaged audience

Presentations on the size of aquatic animals and recyclable containers require peak hand gestures.

Half agree. For some maybe.

I think most people know it's not great but don't know what to do instead.

Whenever we ask training groups what the biggest slide crime is, they always always come back with too much text.

Some disciplines are worse than others as well.
