Autocomplete suggestion getting “February” wrong is a nice touch
But Apruary is fine
Whentember juneteenth
Nah, user wrote February wrong, leading to the wrong extrapolation. The program did good.
I think it was taking the letters in column A and adding “uary” afterwards. Jan-uary was correct, so Feb-uary, etc.
“Do you remuary… –the 21st night of Sepuary?”
Remember, remember!
The fifth of novuary
The gunpowder treason and plotWake me up when Sepuary ends
Rememuary rememuary, the 5th of Novuary.
I think this is the only time excel hasn’t decided something was a date.
Time for my art to shine!
Hahah, brilliant!
OK, but I like this better.

Finally.
Regular English
We can finally parse English with regex?
Now that would be the day!
I’m not defending AI, but I’ve seen Excel manage worse on its own. Granted, it’s almost always my fault for not fully understanding the enigmatic systems that power its logic.
It’s amazing what you can do with Excel if you know how. It makes it so easy to analyze complex data sets, accidentally summon the Dark Lord, create pivot tables and graphs, etc.
accidentally summon the Dark Lord
You’ve tried to use Excel as a database too, huh?
Lol no that just summons a few demons. When you write an entire “application” in VBA and use hidden worksheets as the “database”, then try to share it with the entire organization via a shared drive, then and only then will the gates of hell open and Satan himself come forth.
Oh. That explains the earthquakes.
But have you tried using Excel as the back end database for a poorly designed Access front end?
So…much…Visual Basic….
Whoa whoa whoa! The world is already in rough enough shape without you creating pivot tables
That’s some Stockholm Syndrome talk right there.
This is an old picture with the AI caption added.
I think Mayuary is my favorite, it’s not often I find an arrangement of letters that look that wrong
And the short form of MAY is already the complete name so it doesn’t need any completion
This also highlights the problem of extrapolating from a single data point.
Uh huh. Interesting
(furious scribbling in the scifi worldbuilding notes) “In 2050, the names of the months got inadvertently legally changed when a megacorporation released a new version of their office suite and silently corrupted thousands of government document drafts.”
See the top comment. This is from 5 years ago not actually copilot.
When I was taking my introductory courses in computer science over 20 years ago, they told me to not use Excel if you can avoid it, because it’s not very, you know, precise. So I’m well aware that this is an ancient joke. Excel will fuck your data up - AI is just another way to do it.
But it is a potential scifi plot point.
However, I will concede that it’s probably not a scifi plot point for too long. Worse things have already happened.
Funny post, but it is older than the AI stuff. Source
I think we’re fine for a few years longer, fellow humans.
Oldy but a goody and not ai related.
Is this real? Literally never seen anything this bad myself. Granted I don’t use Excel or many other ms products. GitHub copilot would literally never be this bad though
It’s not. It’s an old picture with a new caption.
Thank you. Op is a lying karma whore
Yes I had something similar happen
Rimworld months
Is there a reason I’m seeing someone mention Rimworld in multiple unrelated posts?
Idk, there was an expansion released like a month back so it’s probably experiencing a spike in popularity.
Also if you don’t know I’m alluding to the fake season names it uses which are portmanteaus of real month names. Decebuary, Aprimay etc
