Скачать или смотреть ChatGPT vs Excel Expert: Testing AI on Formulas, Power Query & Python in Excel

Welcome to the channel!
In this video, I take on ChatGPT in an Excel challenge using real Premier League (EPL) data to test how well AI handles four common Excel scenarios — and where it falls short with overcomplicated solutions:

📌 Static Formula Writing
Categorizing goals using nested IFs vs a scalable lookup table

📌 Dynamic Array Formulas
Summarizing and sorting team stats using GROUPBY vs AI’s overly complex workaround

📌 Power Query (M Language)
Combining and deduplicating teams — AI’s 7-step logic vs a simple 3-step native M function

📌 Python in Excel
Visualizing league data: AI’s repeated matplotlib errors vs a clean, functional Python solution

Throughout the challenge, you’ll see where ChatGPT suggests long-winded, inefficient, or incorrect methods — and where native Excel, Power Query, DAX, and Python can do the job faster and cleaner.

Whether you're an Excel beginner, power user, or exploring AI tools, this is your guide to knowing when to trust the AI and when to trust your own Excel toolkit.
