This will crash the global economy

@eb im crying abt the thumbs up thumbs down lmaooooooo

@eb hey that's pretty close. after seeing the formula I half expected the punchline cell to say "November"

@eb

@eb It's always so baffling to me that people made computers do extremely complicated math and logic to give wrong results in simple arithmetic. And they sell that as a product that's supposed to be a great technological leap forward

@eb is this because it's been trained too much on 5 rows, with 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5 in them?

@eb even fricking VisiCal can do that sum right

@eb you must be prompting it wrong 😂

@eb ..does this run a query every time the cells are updated??? O_O

@eb A is equal to 9, obviously. I don't see what the problem is

@eb The AI will call this an “off by one error”.

@eb
On the plus side, we have a new way to say "bad at math" that isn't misogynist: "vibe math."

My go-to has been "bargain math," which I like a lot, but I think "vibe math" is much more likely to go viral.

@eb to be fair that's the correct answer in JavaScript

@eb
My brain hurts...

@eb yep, can confirm

Copilot is assuming the formula is 12+3
It has no concept of itemizing things by line so it just mashes everything together

AI running our world and replacing the working class is gonna be terrifying

@eb a funny test would be on a brand new sheet =COPILOT("REPEAT LAST ANSWER AND PROMPT") and see if we can get some poor folks prompts

@eb Weird - I just made this for another thread but it works here too.

@technicaladept @eb
"Clippy" was always great for an easy meme. 👍

@technicaladept @eb
Very true!
