[00:01] images that was generated by Cloud Code with just one command. So here are the seven different slides, as you can see, and here's a preview of all seven screen. And here are the seven slides. And just
[00:16] to design something like this, you would have to research the topic, come up with an outline, and also design each and every slide. But with Cloud Code now, you're able to do this in just one prompt and just a couple minutes. And
[00:30] let me show you an actual example of how this works. So I already have this educational carousel skill loaded, and all I have to do is just come here to Cloud Code chat and type in {slash} educational carousel, and just type in
[00:43] enter. And it's going to load the skill. And once the skill is loaded, it's going to ask you what topic would you like to make a carousel about. So let's go ahead to make the carousel on this topic that we are seeing here. So what I'm going to
[00:57] do is that I'm going to copy this URL and come to Cloud Code and just paste in and then just give the prompt of I'm going to say "Can you read this website and extract the key points of the article, and then come up with the hook,
[01:12] and also the rest of the carousel slides? Keep in mind that the audience are beginners, and the purpose of the slides is to educate them why the artifacts are significant." And then I will just send in this prompt
[01:24] and Cloud Code is going to do the rest. And click on yes, so Cloud Code can read the website. And it's going to generate the outline. So let's take a look here. So here we have the hook that says "You are using
[01:37] Cloud wrong." So I don't like that hook too much, so I'm going to say "I don't like the current hook. I don't want to use hype. I would rather sound more grounded, and the purpose is to just share valuable information so
[01:49] viewers can understand why this update is important." And then it's going to make the adjustments. And then we can just wait So now we are looking at the new outline. So first slide one is the hook,
[02:04] is the hook and subtext, slide two, slide three, and four and five. And let's continue to generate. You can go ahead to generate the slides. you can just directly speak to Cloud Code, and by speaking to it instead of
[02:20] typing, it's a lot more efficient and it's a lot faster. And the tool that I if you want to check that out, that out, I will include a free trial link in the And then it's going to start generating all five slides in parallel.
[02:34] And then we can come into workspace, come to today's date, and let's go to Cloud-Artifacts. And the whole process took about 2 minutes, as you can see here. And let's come to click on slide one.
[02:47] So here we are looking at slide one, that looks pretty clean. Slide two, looks great. Slide three, 16 Squad can build you. Slide four, and then slide five.
[02:59] preview. So the preview displays all five slides. And then here is the final output. So I think overall it looks really So this skill makes generating Instagram carousels so easy. It took only about 3
[03:13] minutes, and I downloaded this exact skill from a school community that I'm I'll include that in the description as well. And if you have any questions, let me know in the comments below. See you in the next one.
