Copilot in PowerPoint

Copilot moves numbers from the document to slides selectively and may round them: check every figure against the source
It redraws charts from Excel tables as pictures without a link to the data: for reports, insert the chart from the file by hand
A client deck made on a personal subscription from work files takes data outside the company tenant
