Overview of the webinar
This webinar introduces intermediate to advanced techniques that combine artificial intelligence with Excel to revolutionize data handling and analysis.
In the realm of data preparation, AI in Excel allows users to create new data columns automatically in Power Query by simply providing example outputs. This AI-driven feature intuitively generates the necessary transformations across the dataset, saving time and reducing errors, and making data preparation a breeze for those without deep technical skills.
For data merging, AI facilitates fuzzy joins in Power Query, enabling the combination of data from different sources even when entries don't exactly match—crucial for handling real-world discrepancies such as typos or varied naming conventions. This capability ensures more accurate and comprehensive data consolidation.
The webinar also explores the creation of formulas by example in Excel Online. By demonstrating desired results on a subset of data, Excel's AI learns and replicates the applicable logic throughout the dataset. This automation extends to complex calculations, simplifying tedious tasks and freeing up analysts for more strategic analysis.
Additionally, Excel's Forecast Sheet uses AI algorithms to project future trends from historical data, a vital tool for planning and risk management. It quickly generates predictive charts, helping users grasp potential future scenarios without manual data crunching.
Finally, the introduction of Linked Data Types transforms cells into live data points connected to online sources, pulling real-time updates and detailed information directly into spreadsheets. This feature is a game changer for data-driven decision-making, providing depth and context to the numbers.
This webinar is more than just a technical walkthrough; it's about empowering you with AI tools in Excel to enhance your analytical prowess, making your data work smarter and your insights sharper.
