This deck contains slides I have used in live talks that (more or less) are simple and contain quite a bit of empty space. The first set are some before/after examples, followed by a random sample. This deck is not meant to tell a story -- this is just a way to show some random examples. The meaning of the slides may not be at all clear without the narration that goes with the slides.

Death by PowerPoint
Death by PowerPointAlexei Kapterev This document provides tips for creating effective PowerPoint presentations. It notes that many presentations are "unbearable" due to a lack of significance, structure, simplicity, and rehearsal. It emphasizes the importance of having a clear purpose for your presentation, using a simple structure like problem-solution, keeping slides concise with minimal text and images over clipart, writing speaker notes instead of long slides for printing, and rehearsing your presentation aloud to work out any issues. The overall message is that presentations should be passionate, memorable and scalable through a focus on simplicity and clarity of message.

Simplicity
SimplicityJoão Paulo Alves The document discusses the concept of simplicity. It states that simplicity is rare but not simple to achieve. It provides examples of simple, intuitive designs from Apple and Google Search. It then discusses how simplicity can be realized through thoughtful reduction of functionality without penalty. It also notes that organization can make complex systems appear simpler by sorting, labeling, integrating and prioritizing items. The document outlines five laws of simplicity according to author John Maeda: 1) thoughtful reduction, 2) organization, 3) time savings feel like simplicity, 4) knowledge makes things simpler, and 5) some things can never be simple. It concludes that simplicity is about subtracting the obvious and adding the meaningful.

The What If Technique presented by Motivate Design
The What If Technique presented by Motivate DesignMotivate Design Why "What If"...?
The What If Technique tackles the challenge of engaging a creative, disruptive mindset when it comes to design thinking and crafting innovative user experiences.
Thinking disruptively is a disruptive thing to do, which means it's a very hard thing to do, especially when you add in risk-averse business leaders and company cultures, who hold on tight to psychological blocks, corporate lore, and excuse personas that stifle creativity and possibilities (see www.motivatedesign.com/what-if for more details).
The What If Technique offers key steps, tools and examples to help you achieve incremental changes that promote disruptive thinking, overcome barriers to creativity, and lead to big, innovative differences for business leaders, companies, and ultimately user experiences and products.
Let's find out what's what together! Explore your "What Ifs" with us. See www.motivatedesign.com/what-if for details about the What If Technique, studio workshops, the book, case studies and more downloads--including a the sample chapter "Corporate Lore and Blocks to Creativity"

Critical Thinking for UX Designers (Or Anyone, Really)
Critical Thinking for UX Designers (Or Anyone, Really)Russ U Critical thinking is an important skill for UX designers and others. It involves defining critical thinking, understanding how the brain works through examples of the limbic system and orgasms, and recognizing that people see the world differently so connecting ideas is important. Critical thinking tools can help clarify understanding, provide context, and ensure ideas are supported by evidence. Markets also come in different types so it's important to consider the size and needs of the target market to know if an idea has potential.

Speed of thought
Speed of thoughtVed Prakash Bill Gates summarizes the key ideas from the book Business @ the Speed of Thought in the introduction. He explains that a digital nervous system uses information technology to satisfy people's needs at work and home, just as the human nervous system supports the human mind. Like a living creature, an organization works best if it can rely on a fast flow of good information to all parts that need it. A digital nervous system can greatly improve business efficiency, growth, and profits by allowing information to flow freely within an organization.

The case for on-premises AI
The case for on-premises AIPrincipled Technologies Exploring the advantages of on-premises Dell PowerEdge servers with AMD EPYC processors vs. the cloud for small to medium businesses’ AI workloads
AI initiatives can bring tremendous value to your business, but you need to support your new AI workloads effectively. That means choosing the best possible infrastructure for your needs—and many companies are finding that the cloud isn’t right for them. According to a recent Rackspace survey of IT executives, 69 percent of companies have moved some of their applications on-premises from the cloud, with half of those citing security and compliance as the reason and 44 percent citing cost.
On-premises solutions provide a number of advantages. With full control over your security infrastructure, you can be certain that all compliance requirements remain firmly in the hands of your IT team. Opting for on-premises also gives you the ability to design your infrastructure to the precise needs of that team and your new AI workloads. Depending on the workload, you may also see performance benefits, along with more predictable costs. As you start to build your next AI initiative, consider an on-premises solution utilizing AMD EPYC processor-powered Dell PowerEdge servers.

LSNIF: Locally-Subdivided Neural Intersection Function
LSNIF: Locally-Subdivided Neural Intersection FunctionTakahiro Harada Neural representations have shown the potential to accelerate ray casting in a conventional ray-tracing-based rendering pipeline. We introduce a novel approach called Locally-Subdivided Neural Intersection Function (LSNIF) that replaces bottom-level BVHs used as traditional geometric representations with a neural network. Our method introduces a sparse hash grid encoding scheme incorporating geometry voxelization, a scene-agnostic training data collection, and a tailored loss function. It enables the network to output not only visibility but also hit-point information and material indices. LSNIF can be trained offline for a single object, allowing us to use LSNIF as a replacement for its corresponding BVH. With these designs, the network can handle hit-point queries from any arbitrary viewpoint, supporting all types of rays in the rendering pipeline. We demonstrate that LSNIF can render a variety of scenes, including real-world scenes designed for other path tracers, while achieving a memory footprint reduction of up to 106.2x compared to a compressed BVH.
