“Death by PowerPoint” is a phrase you hear in businesses that rely too much on using presentations to convey information. As it turns out, the US Military adopted a PowerPoint-briefing program that is similarly detrimental because of how it reduces complex situations into long bullet point lists that cannot convey the complexities of the world.
PowerPoint has had both positive and negative effects in the military. Some believe that PowerPoint creates an illusion of understanding and control that simply isn't there. On the other hand, if presentations are thorough, you get complex messes that are impossible to understand. This works great on reporters, however, because slides are so uninteresting that they lose interest and stop listening to the information they're hearing.
