If this can reliably deal with the REF, VALUE, and NA problems, it'll be worth it for that alone. Oh and deal with dates before 1900. Excel is a gift from God

Excel is a gift from God if you stay in its lane. If you ever so slightly deviate, not even the Devil can help you.
But maybe, juuuuust maybe, AI can?

- ACCount37 1y agoNah, the greatest trick the devil ever pulled was convincing the world that Machine Learning is a legitimate field of study, and not just thinly veiled demon summoning.
- globular-toast 1y agoI feel similarly about MS Word. It can actually produce decent documents if you learn how to use it, in particularly if you use styles consistently and never, ever touch the bold, italic, colours etc. (outside of defining said styles, although the defaults are probably all most people need). Unfortunately I think the appeal of Word is that you don't have to learn this and it will just do what you want. Is AI the panacea that will both do what you want and give you the right answers every time?
- HPsquared 1y agoWord and Excel both have low barrier to entry, and a high skill ceiling.
