Copilot Does Not Summarise Slides in Powerpoint

I have a 40 slide presentation. Some of the slides are particularly wordy, so what I was planning to do was to ask Copilot to summarise a series of slides and add that as a companion document to the presentation.

 

When I ask it to summarise a single slide by asking it to "Summarise slide 5" it grabs a title from a previous headline slide and creates a summary based seemingly on the whole presentation. If I ask it to summarise multiple slides with "Please summarise slides 5, 7, 10...." It creates a headline for each slide but summarises the wrong slides throughout and places the wrong titles on each slide in the response.

 

Anyone else tried summarising specific slides in a presentation?

    I have the same issue and didn't manage to get Copilot to do it right, even after trying different possibilities and prompts. It even ended up by hallucinating content that was not even existing in the presentation...
