Term explanation
Display duration in PowerPoint refers to the length of time a slide remains visible before automatically advancing to the next one. Setting a display duration enables auto-play presentations that run without manual input — useful for kiosks, event loops, or self-running demos. Duration settings are configured per slide in the Transitions panel and can be combined with timing controls on individual animations to choreograph a fully automated presentation sequence.
LIZ AI manages more than timing. It keeps slide content synchronized with live data so that every slide shown — regardless of duration — displays accurate, current information.

Most AI presentation makers follow a similar process: the AI analyzes the input, builds a logical slide structure, applies a suitable layout and design, and populates the content. Advanced AI presentation makers go beyond one-time generation: they connect to live data sources, adapt decks to different audiences, and keep presentations updated automatically over time.
Learn moreFace-to-face communication refers to real-time interaction between two or more people who are physically present in the same location. It is considered the richest form of communication because it allows for immediate feedback and the full range of verbal and non-verbal cues — including body language, facial expressions, and tone of voice. In an increasingly digital workplace, face-to-face communication remains highly valued for building trust, resolving complex issues, and strengthening relationships.

Learn moreA vocalized pause is a filler sound — such as 'um', 'uh', 'er', or 'like' — used involuntarily by speakers when they pause to think or gather their thoughts. While occasional pauses are natural, frequent vocalized pauses can undermine a speaker's credibility, reduce clarity, and make a presentation feel less polished. Reducing vocalized pauses is a common goal in public speaking coaching, and is typically addressed through practice, conscious awareness, and the deliberate use of silent pauses instead.
