OpenAI acquires presentation startup NextSlide. Presentation startup NextSlide recently announced that it has joined OpenAI, and its team members have now begun to participate in the related research and development work of ChatGPT. NextSlide founder Ahmed Beshry issued a statement on the official website, stating that NextSlide aims to create a product that can "convert prompt words, notes, documents or research materials into exquisite and editable presentations". Its ultimate goal is to "lower the threshold of visual communication and help more people express their thoughts clearly." After joining OpenAI, the team will continue to uphold this mission and strive to build AI products that promote creation, communication and transform ideas into meaningful results. The specific financial details of this transaction were not disclosed by the parties. Bishri added in a LinkedIn note that the announcement was made several months later than it actually was because the acquisition was actually completed earlier this year. Before founding NextSlide, Bishri was the co-founder of smart shopping cart and contactless payment startup Caper AI, which was acquired by Instacart in 2021. via cnBeta.COM - Chinese industry information station (author: source: cnBeta.COM)
