Original caption

Lately I've been thinking about how different learning Excel must be now compared to when I was first learning it. Back then, if I didn't know how to build something, my only option was to spend hours researching, watching videos, and trial-and-erroring my way through it. Now, after testing @Microsoft 365 Copilot daily, I can see how much faster that process can be. Part of me is jealous. Part of me wonders if struggling through it manually taught me skills I wouldn't have picked up otherwise. what do YOU guys think—if you were learning Excel today, would you start with the fundamentals first, or lean into AI from day one? #Microsoft365Partner #ExcelTips #Copilot #Investmentbanking #CorporateLife
