Sorry, yeah.If you simplify the question, perhaps
That’s bussin’!I found a new use for it yesterday. I've started using it as a GenZ slang translator to annoy my kids when I sent them text messages.
Excel is where I use it the most as well. I’m ok with Excel, I’m just good enough to write a prompt to AI and make t has gotten me some great formulas and VB code that I otherwise would not thought of as quicklyI use it a lot in my job. Some of the ways I have used it:
- Take text I wrote and make it more “marketing-y” or concise
- Check an Excel VBA macro I wrote for errors, and make improvements to it - the problem is sometimes it generates VBA code of its own that doesn’t work, so it takes a round two to ask what it did wrong
- Create a podcast of text that is too boring to read (NotebookLM does this well)
- Summarize meeting notes
- Get me an initial draft of a work email that I am having trouble getting started. From there, I improve it on my own and fact check
- After I pull any intellectual data or information out of text, it can either help me make something more or less technical to translate it to the appropriate audience
It really is great with it. I've been able to ask it questions when I was thinking my way around macros, and it's good at being a sounding board, then giving suggestions for tweaks.Excel is where I use it the most as well.

I've asked it to write bash scripts/functions to do stuff a few times and they didn't work but I got a lot of good ideas and I was able to fairly easily modify them to get something working quickly.I'm a software engineer and I use it every day. There are some tasks it can handle for me entirely and there are some things that I have learned not to even attempt to use it for. Either way, I still have to keep a close eye on it and make sure it's doing what I want. It doesn't come close to doing my job for me, but in aggregate, it allows me to move significantly faster.
It's like having a more junior engineer helping me do my work; they're not always correct but they are extremely fast. So even when they're wrong, we move past it quickly.
I tried that this morning. Not so much my bracket, but what characteristics the winning teams have had in the last 15 years. It mentioned some things like strong guards, good defense, and how 3 point shooting has become more important. Of course it couldn't tell me which teams were strong in these areas.Thinking about asking it to fill out my bracket

Well the high seeds normally do win the overall championship, so that's probably as good as anyone else's guess. Gonzaga is the only one that sticks out. Maybe they are going on past performance.Try Grok.
It gave me Duke, Auburn, Houston, UConn, Gonzaga, and Alabama as true contenders based on metrics that mirrored prior champions.
Some decent color around the choices too.
I don't follow basketball. These seem legit?
