    And that’s a good analogy, as people have posted screenshots of Copilot getting basic addition wrong in Excel.

    Whoever implemented this agent without proper oversight needs to be fired.

      Except the ceo and executives ultimately responsible will blame their underlings that will be fired, even though it was an executive level decision. They didn’t get to the pinnacle of corporate governance by admitting mistakes. That’s not what they were taught at their ivy league schools, they were taught to lie and cheat to steal, and further slander their victims to excuse it.

      It was bad before the current president set his outstanding example for the rest of the country. See what being a lying cheating piece of shit gets you? Everything. Nothing matters. We have the wrong people in charge across the board, from business to government to institutions.

        Fair points all around.

        And you’re not wrong. I work for a law firm and we were tracking his EO’s until mid-2025, and they were so riddled with typos, and errors, and URL’s pointing to the wrong EO, that we actually ended up having to hide the URL’s in the database we built so clients wouldn’t think it was us making these errors.

        When the troop fail, it’s the fault of the commander. The executives and board need to be replaced first, then replace everyone they appointed.

    • Excel already has advanced math functions, and even a python integration as of recently. It is theoretically possible to set a document to calculate all prime numbers in a 10000 range. There is no need to integrate genai.
