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?
It's called recall or something. If you are trying to find something you saw before but can't remember, it remembers for you.
What's the opposite of "concentrating on remembering something strengthens neuron pathways"?
AI
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.
