How to make slides with Claude:

1. Task

☑ Define what you want & what success looks like:
"I want to build a pptx presentation so that [SUCCESS CRITERIA]."

No "make me a deck about X."
↳ That's how you get 10 slides of nothing.

2. Context Files

☑ Upload your expertise and rules as files:
"First, read these files completely before responding: [filename.md] — [what it contains]."

Stop re-explaining your brand, your audience, your standards every single time. Put it in files.

3. Reference

☑ Show what you're aiming for. Upload an example.
"Here is a reference to what I want to achieve: [filename]."

No short prompts and hoping AI figures it out.

4. Research

☑ Claude searches before touching a single slide:
"Search the web using at least 5 varied searches (trends, data, expert opinions, case studies, counterarguments)."

It saves a structured research brief, organized by theme, with source URLs and key data points pulled out.

I like to add:
"Prioritize 2025–2026 sources. Flag anything where sources conflict or data is thin."

5. Slide Brief

☑ Turn research into a slide-by-slide outline:
"Each slide gets: a title, 3 key points, and any specific data/stats from the research that must appear on that slide."

No full paragraphs. Gamma will write the final text. Just give it enough structure and data to work with.

6. Rules

☑ Don't jump into making slides (yet):
"Do not generate slides yet." "Do not write full paragraphs."

A step-by-step approach takes longer, but makes (much) better slides. If you want to be faster, just go straight to Gamma.

7. Generate

☑ Pass the outline to Gamma as a presentation:
"Pass gamma-outline.md to Gamma as a presentation using textMode 'generate'. Use theme: [your brand theme name]."

Claude connects to Gamma for you. Like magic.

8. Theme

☑ Make sure to use your Gamma theme:
"Use theme: [your brand theme name]."

If you don't know how, I made a guide for teams at https://t.co/L0bPMgWEsy (scroll to the bottom).

After generating, review card by card:
→ Would I say this out loud?
→ Does this card earn its place?
→ Is the data right?

9. Alignment

☑ The prompt starts by asking YOU questions.
"Start by using AskUserQuestion to make sure you have enough context from me before researching."

Nothing starts until you're both on the same page. This replaces the old prompting era.

I teach you how Claude works at https://t.co/uWTpOI3oyE.

If you’re afraid of looking stupid, then you’ll never do anything smart. If you’re afraid of being hurt, you’ll never feel loved. If you’re afraid to fail, you’ll never find success.

Most people treat their iPhone camera like a point-and-shoot toy.

They’re carrying one of the best true pocket cameras and using about 50% of its potential.

Here are the settings you need to change to fix that:

Starting with the one that confuses nearly everyone…

@sama FYI I have had “do not use em dashes” in my custom instructions for months, but ChaptGPT still uses them…..

The most entertaining football game in the country of Canada this weekend was @westernuFB vs @Queens_Football went to quadruple OT. Absolute banger.

Stuck behind a paywall I believe. Hardly any stats online. No coverage.

Real Canadian ball.

@OUAsport and @USPORTSca need to wake up and call @TSN_Sports beg for forgiveness for their treachery.

I'm shocked by how many people still don’t use AI on their phones.

It can make your life easier and boost overall productivity.

Here are 12 ways to use AI on your phone : 👇

1. Nail the headline.

5x as many people read the headline vs the rest of the page.

Make your headline:
• Short
• Punchy
• Eye-catching

[Zain Kahn @heykahn]

A lot of anxiety in life comes from engaging in ambiguous relationships.

If you like someone, label that shit.

Makes sense.

[Ethan Mollick @emollick]

After talking to many firms, I have come to believe a key factor in successful AI adoption is whether the executive team actually experiments with AI to try to get work done themselves. Those who do tend to push for transformation

Most c-level folks still haven’t even tried LLMs

[Ethan Mollick @emollick]

I realize this sounds like the weird impenetrable tweets you sometimes see around AI, but it is straightforward: if you work with AI enough you will develop your own prompting techniques through experiments that will be better than the current state-of-the-art prompt engineering
