Mildly approaching an actually useful AI in the stupidest way possible.
I don't need an AI shortcut in Excel that is just a chatbot. If it could actually perform complex redundant tasks, then it would be useful.
"Copilot, please create 3 charts of the most important data and create a Powerpoint with animations to present it."
Until it can do things like that, it's useless to me.
Honest question: what do people actually use this for?
I’ve found it useful in providing scripts for me that I can use as templates. You still have to fix a lot of stuff as it makes crazy assumptions and hallucinates a lot but it’s useful.
