Use AI to rehearse your presentation by generating tough questions you might get asked.
You've built your slides and practiced your talking points, but the hardest part of any presentation isn't what you plan to say — it's what people might ask you. Getting caught off guard by a question you can't answer makes you look unprepared, even if your content is solid. Before your next presentation, give AI a quick summary of your topic and ask it to play devil's advocate. It will generate the challenging questions, edge cases, and skeptical pushback you might face from your audience. This takes five minutes and helps you prepare answers, gather supporting data, or even adjust your slides to address concerns before they're raised. The result: you walk into the room ready for anything. You've already thought through the tough stuff. You sound confident, credible, and unshakable — because you rehearsed the hard parts, not just the easy ones.
