So, you heard all the buzz around artificial intelligence and thought, \u201cI wonder if PowerPoint has AI tools I can use to create slides.\u201d Enter Microsoft Copilot, the latest AI assistant built into the PowerPoint experience. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
If you’ve ever stared at a blank slide deck and wished someone could just\u2026 start it for you, you’re not alone. And now, that \u201csomeone\u201d might be Copilot. In this guide, we\u2019ll talk through how to use Copilot in PowerPoint, what it can and can\u2019t do, how to enable it and what to try if Copilot isn\u2019t giving you quite enough magic. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Here\u2019s the short answer: yes<\/strong>… kind of. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Longer answer: Copilot in PowerPoint can generate a new presentation based on a prompt or even a Word document. It uses your input to create a title slide, structure your content and populate each slide with text that\u2019s at least functional, even if it isn\u2019t always the best. It works, but it often needs a human touch to take it from a basic outline to an actual presentation you can be proud of. <\/p>\n\n\n\n So yes, it creates PowerPoints, but unless you\u2019re going for something quick and generic, you\u2019ll probably still need to do a fair bit of editing. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Copilot isn\u2019t a plug-and-play feature for everyone. It can only be used within PowerPoint if you have the right plan, and just because you the ability to use the Copilot AI chat doesn\u2019t mean you can use it in PowerPoint. <\/p>\n\n\n\n So let\u2019s break it down. <\/p>\n\n\n\n As mentioned, the free Copilot chat is available to everyone who has a Microsoft 365 account. Unfortunately, this doesn\u2019t make you special enough to use it in PowerPoint. <\/p>\n\n\n\nEnabling and Using Copilot in PowerPoint <\/h2>\n\n\n\n
