The Glossary for Presentations & AI

Agentic AI

Agentic AI refers to artificial intelligence systems that act autonomously to achieve multi-step goals — without requiring a human to trigger each action individually. Unlike traditional AI that responds to single prompts, agentic AI plans, decides, and executes sequences of tasks on its own, often integrating with external tools and data sources. In enterprise settings, agentic AI is increasingly used to automate complex workflows such as reporting, content creation, and communication. In the domain of presentations, this approach is realised through the Large Presentation Model (LPM) — an agentic AI system that orchestrates the entire presentation cycle in an enterprise context.

.potm file extension

A .potm file is a macro-enabled PowerPoint template that combines the reusable layout and formatting of a standard template with embedded VBA macros. It allows organizations to distribute presentation templates that include automated functionality — such as auto-populating fields or enforcing formatting rules — while maintaining a consistent visual identity. Like .pptm files, .potm files should be handled carefully due to their macro capabilities.

Task Decomposition

Task decomposition is the process by which an AI agent breaks down a complex, high-level goal into a sequence of smaller, manageable subtasks. The agent identifies dependencies between steps, determines what tools or data each step requires, and decides which subtasks can run in parallel. Task decomposition is a fundamental capability of Agentic AI systems and is central to how an agent loop executes multi-step workflows reliably.

Classroom Communication System (CCS)

A classroom communication system is a technology platform that enables real-time two-way interaction between instructor and students during a class or presentation. It typically supports live polls, Q&A, quizzes, and feedback tools accessible via student devices. By facilitating ongoing dialogue rather than one-way delivery, classroom communication systems increase participation, surface misunderstandings early, and create a more dynamic learning environment for both in-person and hybrid settings.
