> far less waste.

While it’s much faster to create presentations today with AI, every time I’ve worked with PowerPoint on my own and especially SharePoint PPTs, it’s been a massive waste of time.

However, I’ve only seen a doc presented on big screen in a large company meeting once. It worked, but looked unprepared. I assume that the alternative is sending out the memo ahead of time and then just discussing it?

Amazon's method was that you hand out hard copies of the doc at the start of the meeting and everyone reads the doc in silence for the first ~15 minutes. Once everyone has read the doc, then discussion starts.

in general I agree

but also PowerPoint (the product) is kinda terrible at allowing you to efficiently, low time investment create presentations for am internal meeting which then get discarded. And the web version is even worse.
