Microsoft says its Agent Mode in Excel has an accuracy rate of 57.2 percent in SpreadsheetBench, a benchmark for evaluating an AI model’s ability to edit real world spreadsheets.
It generates 42.8% bullshit.

Just keep regenerating data until it’s something the stock holders like. Doesn’t matter if it’s BS. They’re already accustomed to that.
Nice. Basically a coin flip
