@reinouts@mastodon.green @knud@mastodon.social @Kiloku@burnthis.town @eb@social.coop It takes effort and money to fine tune things and given this is probably just a move to keep some investors happy they can't be bothered? Agree with you it should be possible (also, I suspect it probably would work with a more carefully crafted prompt)

@reinouts@mastodon.green @nicolaromano@qoto.org @Kiloku@burnthis.town @eb@social.coop They _don't_ write code. They statistically assemble code sniplets from what they were trained on, given a certain prompt. An LLM has no understanding of "variable" or "function". And an Excel table is basically a lost cause, because Copilot isn't doing a sum, it's trying to predict an outcome based on training, and there simply weren't many cases where the answer was "15" given that promt. An LLM can't compute a sum.
