I just discovered:

This NEW Excel AI Function Will SAVE You HOURS of Work

and after much fun (not) installing everything that needs to be installed I can now chat with ChatGpt directly from Excel.

My first little chat was:

LABS.GENERATIVEAI oldest stone bridge in Australia

which returned the answer:

The oldest stone bridge in Australia is the Lennox Bridge, located in Glenbrook, New South Wales. It was completed in 1833 and is still in use today.

… oh.

I suspect it will not save me HOURS of work, still might be useful sometimes.

One in six Australians will get an STI in their lifetime, says Family Planning Australia acting medical director Evonne Ong. “STIs are much more common than most people realise, and the treatment and management processes of STIs may not be as complicated as you think.” The Kirby Institute found that STIs such as gonorrhoea, chlamydia and syphilis are common in Australia.

we thought it was more like 5/6 so actually these fun infections are pretty uncommon

good news

Very detailed maps showing what areas are in shadow at various times and dates.

Supposedly the settlement on earth that is in shadow for the longest time is Rjukan in Norway, a town in a steep valley.
