An AI column fills all rows at once and overwrites old values after the instruction changes
Policies the AI wrote on its own need sign-off from the owner: the model adds rules the company does not have

Gamma

The model adds plausible facts and numbers to your points: after generation, reread every slide and remove everything you did not provide
Company financials and plans in Gamma sit on the service's servers: keep the deck private by default and check link access settings
Export to PowerPoint loses some animations and layouts: check the file before presenting
