Jiří Eischmann<p>Fun with <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/AI" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>AI</span></a>:<br>I have a spreadsheet containing assignees, with various values on each line. I needed to calculate the sum of certain values for one assignee. This would normally be a simple query in <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/LibreOffice" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>LibreOffice</span></a>, but let's try using AI instead. I uploaded the spreadsheet to <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/GoogleSheets" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>GoogleSheets</span></a> and entered a simple prompt in <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/Gemini" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Gemini</span></a>: 'Give me the sum of XY values for assignee "name"' No result.<br>So I tried a more algorithmic prompt: 'Go through each line, and if the value in column XX is "name", count the value in column XY to the sum, and give me the total sum for all lines'.<br>The result? 150.<br>That's nice, but the simple query in LibreOffice gave me 27, which was the correct answer.</p><p>No matter how much I try, Gemini is completely useless in Google Sheets.</p>
