Vibe working in Excel

Microsoft just unleashed Agent Mode in Excel Labs, powered by OpenAI's latest reasoning models, and it's completely transforming how we think about spreadsheets.

This isn't your typical AI assistant - it's a full Excel expert in your pocket that can:
✨ Build complete financial models from scratch in minutes
📊 Generate complex dashboards with charts, pivot tables and insights automatically
💰 Create loan calculators, budget trackers and P&L statements with professional formatting
🔍 Conduct multi-step data analysis with validation loops to ensure accuracy
What makes this absolutely mind-blowing: Agent Mode doesn't just generate outputs - it reasons, evaluates, fixes issues and iterates until perfect. It's like having a spreadsheet wizard working alongside you, but you stay in complete control.

Microsoft's benchmarking shows 57.2% accuracy on complex spreadsheet tasks, outperforming ChatGPT and Claude agents, with the gap to human experts rapidly closing.

The era of "vibe working" has officially begun. Excel mastery is no longer reserved for formula experts. It's now accessible to everyone.
