Google is continuing its push to integrate AI deep into its Workspace apps. The latest update introduces a feature in Gemini Canvas that can read any document or report and automatically generate a complete, professionally formatted Google Slides presentation.
This tool is designed to save users countless hours. The AI analyzes the text, identifies key themes and sections, and then builds a slide deck complete with titles, logical breaks, and relevant visuals. The result is a clean, professional-looking presentation created with minimal effort.
This new capability is housed in Gemini’s Canvas mode, the same environment Google launched for AI-assisted writing and brainstorming. Now, this workspace serves as a bridge, turning text-based ideas into visual presentations ready for any meeting.
Once the AI creates the draft, users can export it directly to Google Slides. This allows for easy editing, customization, and collaboration, combining the speed of AI with the control of human oversight.
The feature is already rolling out to users around the world, on both personal Google accounts and Workspace plans. It appears to be reaching Gemini Advanced (Pro) subscribers first, with a general release for all users expected to follow.
