      Gippity suggests the only word that starts with “febu” is febuxostat.

    Hi, I see you’ve made a typo. Want me to double down on that?

    Helps if you spell February correctly.

    Top level comment for those who think it’s a typo. Notice how it auto-fills after the first character.

    Also, this hardly has to do with AI, this is just Excel being Excel. But hey, memes are supposed to be funny, not accurate.

      Have you tried using a US English locale? Most AI models are trained mostly in English, so not sure if your locale being Dutch is affecting that.

      It’s actually because January is also misspelled. Or possibly because Excel’s language/region isn’t set up right (I see your month abbreviations aren’t us-eng… If excel is in us-eng it likely isn’t going to identify them properly.

        Correct, but my locale is Dutch so it’s spelled correctly. Changing the language doesn’t matter for this exercise

          Ironically AI would probably work ok here whereas excel is using a human-designed pattern matching heuristic that apparently either has a bug or didn’t take into account your locale properly. I say that as someone with a relatively negative opinion of ai

          This is a task ai would do well at whereas most of the Excel workflow it would not.

            The language used doesn’t matter and it’s not a bug. I can’t be arsed to set my whole office suite to English but this is what Excel does, no matter what language you’re using. So if I used English month abbreviations, the same thing would still happen.

    Can confirm, excel is stupid as hell. Need to be a programmer almost to get it to do basic things

      I mean, Excel’s formulas are just scripting, so you are programming if you do any formulas.

      Excel is pretty powerful if you have some data to manipulate or some math to math, but also it’s generally the worst tool for the job, but it’s at least a tool you can almost always assume will be available

    LLMs replacing good tools with ones that don’t work as well.

    It literally does what you told it to. It also has nothing to do with AI.

    Better ditch this crap and use AWK for manipulating tables. It has all the intelligence you’ll need.
