Fun with #AI:
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 #LibreOffice, but let's try using AI instead. I uploaded the spreadsheet to #GoogleSheets and entered a simple prompt in #Gemini: 'Give me the sum of XY values for assignee "name"' No result.
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'.
The result? 150.
That's nice, but the simple query in LibreOffice gave me 27, which was the correct answer.

No matter how much I try, Gemini is completely useless in Google Sheets.

Want to build your own Levels FYI website?

Levels FYI was built on spreadsheets. No database backend to start!

Are you interested in using Google Drive and Google Sheets in your next CSharp application? Get started with the Google Sheets API to access spreadsheets in dotnet and maybe you can build your very own Levels FYI site!

... Or maybe something else entirely but tapping into spreadsheets makes it easier for you to start :)
