And here you thought automatic date conversion was a problem.
I hate Microsoft and Excel but that date thing is exactly the kind of stuff that AI would be great at.
Just not the kind of AI Microsoft probably plans to put in Excel 🤷
Not necessarily. It would do better than current excel, but that’s a low bar… but it would also introduce less reliability / more randomness in date conversions, which is not what any business wants.
Most of excels quirks have not been fixed because a ton of business processes have been built upon those quirks. AI can’t fix that.
I thought Intel already managed that with the GPU issues.
Intel did this way before it was cool
Or rather, between two AI winters.
I meant to write FPU. It got auto-mangled and I thought I corrected it; clearly not…
The new excuse: “It’s not a bug it’s AI”
Gross, this annoying bug I didn’t ask for is distracting me, and sucking my blood. Totally not a metaphor…
Finally, you say?
To emphasize that bugs in implementations of floating point arithmetic are far from rare, we mention that the Calculator application in Microsoft Windows 3.1 evaluates fl(2.01 - 2.00) = 0.0.
