Excel is still doing the calculations, not the AI. The AI is helping to write functions.

This distinction is immaterial. This is like a big child grabbing a smaller child’s hand and slapping them with their own hand saying “quit hitting yourself”. It’s like trying to get out of a speeding ticket by saying all you did was push the accelerator… Truely it was the fuel injectors forcing the vehicle to an illegal speed.

Just because you’ve adjusted the abstraction layer at which you’ve ceded deterministic outcomes, doesn’t mean AI isn’t doing it.

You can easily spot check a couple examples then apply that same formula down the column.

This may be appropriate in some scenarios, specifically:

• When accuracy isn’t important

• When you will never need to justify what is being done to anyone (including yourself)

This, however, covers a decidedly small portion of professional work done using Excel.
