Google’s AI, Gemini, is moving beyond just being a writing assistant. A new feature in Gemini Canvas transforms it into a full-fledged productivity partner, designed to automate complex tasks and save users hours of manual formatting.
This new capability allows the AI to take any text document—a long report, a research paper, or a simple outline—and automatically generate a complete, professionally designed Google Slides presentation. This is a significant leap in AI-driven productivity.
The AI intelligently interprets the document’s structure. It then builds a themed slide deck, creating all necessary titles, adding section breaks for clarity, and even sourcing relevant visuals to make the content engaging and easy to understand.
This is a massive time-saver for students and professionals. The “heavy lifting” of initial slide design, which can take hours, is now done in seconds, allowing users to focus on refining their message and practicing their delivery.
The feature is rolling out globally for both personal Google accounts and Workspace users. Early reports suggest Gemini Advanced (Pro) subscribers are seeing it first, with a wider release for all users expected to follow soon.
