Sir, I hope you're making a fine living with this channel, because you are helping the rest of us keep ourselves sharp and up to date with all the tools for today's business world.

Kelvin you're the best at what you do... you do know how to communicate to your viewERs in a simple concise manner.. that's why I don't get tired watching and listeninģ to you... Thank you for the knowledge sharing...💙💙

Copilot should been included with office 365 ?

Based on its capabilities, Copilot performs a function similar to other Excel features. I was actually expecting a significant transformation comparable to Power Query or Dynamic Arrays.

Copilot was advertised as available waay before it even was. That was so confusing because ppl thought the preview version, or the free version was the actual Pro version. Then the subscription website wasn't even working. So I hope what my trusted mentor is presenting to us is actually the real Copilot Pro

Seems more like a tool for people who don't really know excel too well. And that's fine really... you'd be surprised how many otherwise intelligent people don't know how to use a simple pivot table or put in a conditional format. But advanced excel users can likely pass... they can do this stuff in their sleep. Then again, I'm sure this video only scratches the surface. I'm wondering if it works with Power Query and some of the more advanced features. It's also worth mentioning that with the subscription, you get the CoPilot in other programs like Word, Outlook, PowerPoint, etc. I saw a PowerPoint demo, and it really did seem pretty useful. But not for me though... it's not worth the money for what I typically do, but to each his own.

Nice! People can now focus more on data quality than processing it.

I adore your channel, you are so very intelligent and inspiring. I recently enrolled in a data science course and really enjoyed it your videos. Thank you for sharing your thoughts.

As usual, a well explained video..thank you Kevin and your cookie company!!!!

Excellent one😊

Dear Kevin, Excellent inclusion of the audio track in your videos. I hope everyone follows your lead. Congratulations for making your videos easier to understand.👏👏👏👏👏

Double subscription means Microsoft isn't serious in this product ❤

This was an awesome video - really useful. Gave a great insight in if worth using at the moment for Power Users

I've been trying to get Copilot 365 to do the most basic tasks in Excel for a couple weeks, including formatting, and it refuses. So far the preview is garbage.

Awesome tutorials

Do you know if copilot can write a formula to find a specific value that'sassociatedwith a word/somebtext, let's use Rent as an example, in a Profit and Loss spreadsheet? The reason I ask is the line that my Rent might be in line 24 during one period and line 22 in another so a formula that pulls the value out of the same cell each time won't work for me.

Oh wow. This looks awesome. I'm curious how much data before it performs too slowly. And what is the success rate. I don't know how many failures were excluded from the video. And I wonder how it performs with poorly built spreadsheets. I've encountered many awful spreadsheet designs. And lastly, how well does it diagnose errors in the spreadsheets. If it can do that well, it would be a massive time saver.

If I have to adjust the data for the AI to understand it seems like it’s not worth the extra cost. And I agree, this should be included in MS 365 subscription.

Wanted to share my thanks with you for your effort to help us all.
