I'm bad with spread sheets so maybe this is trivial but having an llm tell me how to connect my sheet to whatever data I'm using at the moment and it coming up with a link or sql query or both has allowed me to quickly pull in data where I'd normally eyeball it and move on or worst case do it partially manually if really important.
It's like one off scripts in a sense? I'm not doing complex formulas I just need to know how I can pull data into a sheet and then I'll bucketize or graph it myself.
Again probably because I'm not the most adept user but it has definitely been a positive use case for me.
I suspect my use case is pretty boilerplatey :)
Good to know that it works well for that.
>I'm not doing complex formulas
Neither am I frankly. Finance stuff can get conceptually complicated even with simple addition & multiplication though. e.g. I deal with a lot of offshore stuff, so the average spreadsheet is a mix of currencies, jurisdictions and companies that are interlinked. I could probably talk you through it high level in an hour with a pen & paper, but the LLMs just can't see the forest for all the trees in the raw sheet.
