I really like how it takes some of the slides which are static (each one of these is its own slide in the original deck) and turns them into animations. https://x.com/trq212/status/2074619715826381168/video/1

I've found the bottle neck for this stuff can be video rendering time, so I've asked it to make a bunch of renderings at lowres video. Having the deck in HTML is super useful. It allows Claude to create dynamic animations, like the section intro below.
