Turning Homer's Odyssey into a Corporate Pitch Deck
emollick · x · 2026-07-15
Professor Ethan Mollick shared a fun AI use case: prompting an LLM to reframe Odysseus from The Odyssey as a management consultant. In a PPT format, the AI argues that he found "product-market fit" (PMF) and advises him to focus solely on building the Trojan Horse rather than returning to Ithaca.
The AI-generated pitch deck even includes a one-star review from Cassandra, cleverly playing on the Greek myth of her curse—being able to predict the future but having no one believe her.
