Then why are they promoting it, in a pizza ad, as letting CoPilot handle the spreadsheets. Do they not trust their own product!?

My favorite part of that ad was that it was just “magic.”

He plugged in existing numbers and it generated some charts and there’s a line out the door!

Did AI renegotiate supplier agreements? Did it find a way to advertise in a new way? Ha, ha! Who’s to say, just use it why don’t cha??
