    I am wrong and Microsoft is even dummer then i thought to allow this.

    FYI: this image is fake.

    The sentiment is true but there is no such thing as a =Copilot() command.

    Source: My work gave me a pro license and i could not replicate this. It still absolutely sucks in every conceivable way compared with claude. The only other way is if this is a region exclusive update but even then its questionable because the implication of those cells updating live could be exploited to be very expensive for ms.

        Looks like the screenshot uses the formula wrong (no context cells passed), but still… And the docs warn you not to use it for any numerical or high stakes/financial tasks lol “DO NOT USE IF ACCURACY IS IMPORTANT TO YOU” 😂

          The context is optional. But without context, copilot has nothing to work on. So the correct answer should be:

          „Are you stupid?! Which numbers are you talking about?“ instead of „sure thing, the sum of nothing is clearly 15!“

        There is no need to be overly dramatic. As far as i was aware i had the latest version and highest tier license making me assume i could actually test this.

        I swallow my words when provided with proof. And i will take an experienced person their world in fields I don’t have experience myself.

        There are a lot of jokes around that get mis interpreted as real facts on the current internet. You also should not automatically belief stuff online. Critical thinking and doing your own research are still important even when considering that you can fuck that part up.
