This is for everyone who asks Excel questions here. I found a website that uses AI to create your Excel formula. You type in what you are trying to accomplish and it spits out the result. I tried a few simple ones and wow. I wish I would have had this a long time ago.

The first jobs AI will replace are going to be white collar.

White collar jobs some of them require judgement.

Low-level white collar jobs yes

Call centers, paralegals, etc.. office workers that do very repetitive tasks.

This is a good list of how it will go:

1.Creative jobs like software development, graphics design, writing, photography, etc.

2.Professional jobs like accountants, lawyers, project managers

3.Jobs requiring movement and dexterity with your hands, arms and/or legs




Ironically more blue collar jobs will go last because automating human movement that isn't a repetitive manufacturing process will be difficult, and it'll be more expensive to build any robot that's capable of the complexities of human movements with human general intelligence.

Even AI experts say they underestimated how complex basic human movements are because they're so instinctual to the human body.

Where I work (auditing), we are training an AI program to take scanned invoices and put the information from it in a spreadsheet. It’s getting really good at it. The more we use it, the better it gets.

Was that internally developed or did you outsource it?

What software are you using?
I have used Kofax's product but to call it AI would likely be a reach

I would have to look that up Monday. All I’ve done is dropped the scanned file in a share point folder and it gets done from there. I think it’s an office suite program.

I bookmarked this knowing I'd use it at some point. Today was that day. The place I work has a spreadsheet for our time sheets so we can track how many hours we were actually flipping burgers vs. frying fries.

It requires you to put in the previous Sunday's date and automatically populates all the other days of the week. Rather than open my calendar every week to figure out what date Sunday was, I used this tool and it popped out this formula which seems to work:
=TODAY()-WEEKDAY(TODAY(),2)

Thanks for the tip!

It's probably an OCR software like Kofax that is being fed into ML models.

I did find this company which does look attractive if you need OCR with ML

This was on ESPN awhile back. Its Excel Esports: All-STAR Battle.

People competing. They are given a task and whoever completes it first without any flaws wins. Its pretty interesting.
