I realize this is the wrong community to post it in, but I can imagine it being useful for things like summarization and cursory sentiment analysis, and perhaps for chaotic test data generation.
As with all AI, though, it’s a wildly risky tool as it requires the user to understand its limitations and fallibility (as well as the million other issues AI brings with it).
I suppose the idea would be like AVG, but for free form text comment cells. Can’t really chart that.
Of course it would be non deterministic left as a “formula”, so it’s still a bad idea to encode that way, but guess they could have a “summarize this column” feature and then the user does as they will with the result.
Though having comments in a column in a spreadsheet has always seemed like a weird format choice.

I feel like that boils down to “I want a chart, but in words instead of visualization.”

Kind of - it’s the step that makes the data uniform and (nominally) useful so it can then be aggregated and reported on.
