A new paper suggests that the Microsoft Excel it could be the next product to receive help of artificial intelligence in his toolbox, but this one it will not be ChatGPT
The paper, co-authored by eight of its researchers Microsoft, highlights the importance of spreadsheet software, which is used by "billions of users," with the Microsoft Excel to be one of the most popular if not the most popular.
A new piece of artificial intelligence, called FLAME, is expected to be significantly more efficient and cost-effective compared to other solutions already available, and is also designed with special tasks in mind for Excel, giving it a greater advantage over multipurpose AI.
The paper describes the FLAME as a “model based on T5 and trained in types Excel». Because it is a small language model, it will be cheaper to train, making it more accessible to end users.
Researchers compare the FLAME to Codex-Davinci, Codex-Cushman and CodeT5, which use parameters 175B, 12B and 220M respectively to train their language models, but claim that it can outperform these larger models "in 6 out of 10 settings". The FLAME uses only 60M parameters.
The main intention is to help its users Excel with formulas, offering auto-complete suggestions and even fixing misspelled formulas.
There's no word on when (or even if) this model will become generally available at Microsoft Excel, however, given the company's recent announcement confirming a significant investment in OpenAI, it's likely that AI will be involved in a lot more Microsoft products soon. The company has already introduced some features Chat GPT on Viva Sales, amid rumors that it is going to incorporate the GPT-3.5 large language model into many of its other products.
