You need to compress a 30-page paper into 15 slides
Academic presentation prompts must preserve accuracy while reducing detail. The goal is not to paste the whole paper into slides. The goal is to make the research story understandable.
Tip 1: Tell AI the structure of your paper
Give the core sections:
- Background
- Research question
- Method
- Dataset or experiment
- Results
- Discussion
- Contribution
Example:
Create a 15-slide conference deck from this paper. Presentation time: 12 minutes. Audience: researchers in the same field. Keep the method and results accurate.
Tip 2: Provide key Figure and Table data directly
AI cannot know which result matters most unless you tell it.
Paste the key table values or describe the figure:
Figure 2 shows that Model A improves F1 score from 0.71 to 0.79 compared with the baseline.
Tip 3: Specify presentation time
A 5-minute presentation and a 20-minute presentation need different slide density.
Prompt:
Make this suitable for a 10-minute oral presentation. Use fewer words and prioritize visuals.
Tip 4: Clearly state that the audience is expert
For academic talks, you usually do not need to explain every basic concept. Tell MOVO the audience level.
Recommended setup
| Setting | Recommendation |
|---|---|
| Audience | Experts or researchers |
| Tone | Formal |
| Density | Balanced |
| Style | Minimal, structured |
Tip 5: Use AI editing to refine graphs
After generation, improve dense result slides:
- "Make this result slide easier to explain verbally."
- "Turn these numbers into a clean chart."
- "Separate method and result into two slides."
