Add a checked three-slide section to PowerPoint with Claude

Use Claude for PowerPoint to draft three slides in a copy of an existing deck, then check every claim, source label, editable object and layout before keeping it.

The big change

What changed: Anthropic documents a PowerPoint add-in that can create slides using the loaded template's layouts, fonts and colors, and edit selected slides. Why it matters: A presentation owner can ask for a bounded section in the native deck, then check it against the records used to approve the underlying facts. What to watch: Template compliance and editable output are claims to verify in the resulting file. The add-in's manual does not establish automatic retrieval of arbitrary web pages or verified slide citations.

The task here is specific: add exactly three slides to a copy of an existing, authorized deck. Begin with a short, approved brief that maps each material fact to its source. Finish only when the saved copy reopens with those three slides in the intended place, the surrounding slides intact, and every required claim and object checked in PowerPoint.

For other presentation tasks, our guide to creating and exporting a local AI slide deck produces an HTML viewing export. Our Excel-to-PowerPoint chart guide updates one existing native chart from workbook cells.

Run one Hermes Agent gateway on a VPS and check a private Telegram reply

Set up one version-checked Hermes Docker gateway on a Linux VPS, admit one private Telegram sender, verify an actual reply, then check restart and stop controls.

The big change

What changed: A digest-pinned, version-checked Docker image and dedicated /opt/data mount make this one gateway's software and state identifiable.

Why it matters: A numeric Telegram allowlist and an actual private reply show whether the intended account can use the gateway.

What to watch: Pairing or global grants can widen access, and a harmless prompt does not limit the agent's tools. Check grants, logs, restart and stop state.

Copy a Genspark Design prototype and inspect its source ZIP

Duplicate a Genspark Design prototype, verify access to the copy, make one limited edit and inspect its source ZIP using the documented controls.

The big change

What changed: Genspark documents a separate source download beside Build it. A team can keep an editable project copy and take a local source snapshot without first asking Design to create a runnable website or app.

Why it matters: The copy gives a designer room for a limited edit while retaining the original. The ZIP lets a developer inspect what was exported before deciding whether any of it belongs in an app project. Duplication also carries the project's conversations, so the copy still needs careful access control.

What to watch: Design bills credit-consuming AI work even when a redraw is discarded. Check Credit Usage → Design before an edit that could trigger generation. Open Share on the duplicate and verify its access: a public link lets anyone with the URL see the design, source files, history and downloads.

Compare an AI agent vendor's action controls before procurement

Compare one AI agent vendor's identities, approvals, tool permissions, logs, data flows and failure evidence against your written risk profile before a human purchase review.

The big change

What changed: An agent purchase can include delegated actions in business systems. The buyer needs to know who can make the agent act, on what, and under whose approval.

Why it matters: A buyer can tie each proposed action to a named control and the evidence for it. That gives the business owner and security reviewer a concrete basis for limiting access or holding the purchase.

What to watch: The decision turns on evidence for the exact product version and workflow. A control shown in documentation may still need a supervised demonstration before the reviewer accepts it for the intended use.

Ask ChatGPT about one open Chrome tab and check its source

Use ChatGPT's Chrome extension to ask one question about a mentioned open tab, then check the answer against the page title, URL and supporting passage.

The big change

What changed: OpenAI documents a way to use a tab in your regular Chrome profile as context for a ChatGPT Work or Codex task. Selecting @Chrome chooses the browser; mentioning one open tab separately identifies the page you want to discuss.

Why it matters: Someone reading a long page can ask for one stated fact and inspect the supporting passage without copying the whole page into a prompt. The answer still needs human checking, especially on a signed-in or changing website.

What to watch: Browser availability varies with rollout and workspace settings. Website permissions govern where ChatGPT can work, while the extension's browser permissions are broader. Check both before using sensitive pages.

How to check what three AI search tools say about your brand

Record what ChatGPT Search, Perplexity and Gemini say about one brand for a few fixed questions. Save answers, open sources and check claims against approved facts.

The big change

What changed: A fixed set of questions and two documented sessions turn a passing look at an assistant answer into a record another person can inspect.

Why it matters: Opening the displayed sources and checking claims against dated, approved facts helps an owner identify a specific error or stale page to review.

What to watch: Changed account conditions, missing citations and unavailable runs affect what the record can establish. It cannot show how often people see the brand or whether a site edit caused a result.

How to choose or reject an AI tool for one small-business task

Compare an actual no-code AI candidate with your existing route for one small-business task. Check fit, permissions, full cost and accepted work before choosing or rejecting it.

The big change

What changed: Current no-code tools and their account controls give an operator several possible routes for the same task. A short, documented comparison can narrow those routes to a suitable finalist, or rule them out before a trial.

Why it matters: The decision can rest on accepted work, review and rework, access, data exposure and total cost, rather than a vendor demonstration or a fast first draft.

What to watch: Product limits and privacy controls can change. A week of your own task records is useful local evidence, but does not prove a general time saving.

Original story: analysis

How GEO can help companies improve AI search visibility

How ClayHog connects AI prompt monitoring, citation analysis and content work, and what small and large companies can build around GEO.

The big change

What changed: Companies can now monitor how their brands and web pages appear in answers across AI search products, alongside traditional search and website analytics.

Why it matters: People may form an initial view of a company from an AI answer before visiting its website. A team that keeps product facts clear and useful can improve the information available for that discovery moment.

What to watch: Treat a brand mention, a retrieved page, a visible citation and a modeled exposure estimate as different measures. The prompt set, model, region, date and methodology all shape the result.
