Frequently asked questions
What is the best AI for building the slide deck of a thesis defence?
Gamma generates a structured, visually polished deck from an outline or a summary of the thesis, which you then adjust section by section rather than starting from an empty slideshow.
How can you anticipate the committee's questions with AI?
Claude or ChatGPT can take the summary of the thesis and generate a list of likely questions and potential weak points. Consensus lets you check whether your results align with the existing scientific consensus on the subject, a frequent line of attack from committees.
