Ready for the Future of Excel?

AI will power the future of Microsoft Excel.

And the AI’s magic depends on Python.

Real-World AI in 2025. Will You Be Ready?

Python in Excel is intended to empower everyone (and we mean everyone now that we also have Copilot in Excel with Python) to do data analysis in an easy, secure, and compliant way.”

-Keyur Patel, Principal Program Manager at Microsoft

AI is Being Sold Like it’s Magic

Microsoft will be like every other AI vendor out there - promising that Copilot will magically transform your organization:

  • Everyone in the organization with Copilot in Excel can perform amazing data analyses.

  • Better yet, with Copilot in Excel, everyone can harness the power of Python to perform advanced analytics.

  • Best of all, with Copilot in Excel, nobody needs to understand analytics, and they don’t need to know Python!

What Microsoft Won’t Tell Your Executives

Copilot makes mistakes.
Sometimes, it makes stuff up out of thin air!

The technical term for this is "hallucinations."

Sam Altman, the CEO of the most famous AI company (OpenAI), stated that hallucinations are more a feature of AI than a bug.

Think about this for a second. What Sam Altman is saying is that hallucinations are inherent in every AI. There’s nothing you can do about it.

Every AI will sometimes make stuff up at random.

I’m not your typical data science instructor. I believe ANY professional can (and should) build DIY data science skills. To succeed in this mission, I have to do one thing and do it well.

I have to make learning data science fun.

Yes, you read that correctly.

I won’t lie. Many find the idea of applying cluster analysis intimidating. It shouldn’t be. It’s a skill like any other. You get better with practice.

Making learning data science fun makes getting started less intimidating.

You’ve got this if you want it.
