which means it probably gets all the halucinated assets correctly and any real world documents wrong.
Still, looks pretty; if it actually has proper testing, could close the gap. Code not being the hard part is a major impediment to good software coming out of these things.

Would author be able to do it otherwise? Is particular tool choice making result worse?
Bit identical/pixel-faithful reproductions are easy to verify…

"LLMs are amazing, I'm so much more productive now"
"oh yeah? Show me what you made, you can't, nobody can, it's all just AI psychosis"
"I made a pixel perfect Office document viewer"
"well... I wish you hadn't"

#9Pretty cool, rendering PowerPoint files to an image is probably the only way for LLMs to make sense of them.
Does this work in Cloudflare’s workerd environment? Would be nice to have a cheap serverless render -> LLM (GLM-OCR / PaddleOCR) -> Markdown pipeline for the various MS Office formats.

#10Interesting because I'm building ooxml-cli right now, for editing pptx, docx, xlsx.
At work I had to adapt a pptx to a corporate template and tried via agent. It kept failing so I started building and then it was able to relatively quick and accurate do what I needed.
Then I needed it to make tables, add pictures. Recently wanted to get data from an xslx and replace text in a presentation etc.
So the tool is growing and maybe this would be interesting to have as the non LibreOffice dependent viewer...
