Copilot generated a messy 6-7 slide presentation with unnecessary images & wrong fonts/template. Claude created a clean, well-formatted slide that matched the corporate template perfectly.

Mistakenly said it's episode 266, but it's actually 265. An idea: feed rough voice-memo outline for a work presentation into Claude and ask it to restructure it and build PowerPoint slides.

After listening to your recent #audio365 I asked Gemini on my phone to RAID a first draft of an upcoming grant application in my Drive. So instructive

Nice Boo. BUT this episode exceeded the minutes I allocate to #audio365 episodes (12 minutes, the time required to walk to my nearest bus stop). If you regularly make episodes longer than 12 minutes I will have to walk greater distances. And I might get wet.

SM2N figured out a cleaner way to keep his RAID log in sync between Confluence and Obsidian — pasting from Confluence into Claude, Excel export, using Rovo back into Confluence.
