Microsoft announces Python formulas in Excel... which have to get sent to the cloud
(techcommunity.microsoft.com)
This is a most excellent place for technology news and articles.
Wow, Microsoft is now copying LibreOffice. Who could have guesses?
The Python bit. The cloud was copied from Google's suite.
GSheets lets you run python code? I thought they were all js-based
edit: I misread, you're saying LibreOffice has Python support, nvm
They ~~don't~~ let you write custom JS scripts, ~~at least not without hacks AFAIK~~. We are talking about scripting languages for macros like Office’s infamous VBA.
So who is hosting libteoffice’s python cloud?
No one. It's local. As it should be.
Right. So like not what people are saying in the posts above. Yet I still get downvoted.
Anyway, thanks for confirming this is not cloud.
The difference is Microsoft will feed your scripts into training its AI.
Microsoft is stupid, but not too stupid to realize that Excel users are generally tech-illiterate and most of them will produce garbage code.
Gpt/Bing attempts at python code for excel lmao, full circle, ai training on itself
