While I expect this is fake, I don't know whats worse about it. the fact that copilot got that wrong, or the fact that they used it in the first place instead of one of the 3 built in functions that can summarize cells.

From what I can gather, it's not actually fake. Apparently you need to prompt the AI in a very specific way so that it produces the desired result instead of making the numbers up (which imo defeats the whole purpose of using the AI instead of learning the formulas)
