Summary of "Convierte Excel en una Herramienta de IA con ChatGPT | Tutorial de Inteligencia Artificial"
This tutorial explains how to integrate ChatGPT directly into Microsoft Excel to transform it into an AI-powered tool, moving beyond the traditional copy-paste method of using ChatGPT outputs.
Main Ideas and Concepts
- Traditional Method of Using ChatGPT with Excel:
- Previously, users had to manually interact with ChatGPT on its website.
- For example, asking ChatGPT to create a table (e.g., provinces of Andalusia and their population).
- After ChatGPT generated the table, users would copy and paste the data into Excel using "Paste Special."
- This method was cumbersome and inefficient.
- Direct Integration of ChatGPT into Excel:
- Now, you can install a ChatGPT add-in for Excel that allows direct interaction with the AI inside the spreadsheet.
- No need to leave Excel or copy-paste data manually.
- This integration makes Excel a powerful AI tool for data manipulation, analysis, and automation.
Step-by-Step Methodology to Integrate ChatGPT in Excel
- Open Excel and Prepare to Install the Add-in:
- Open any Excel workbook.
- Go to the Insert tab in the top menu.
- Click on Add-ins and then select Get Add-ins.
- Search and Install the ChatGPT Add-in:
- In the Microsoft Office add-ins store, search for "ChatGPT for Excel."
- Select the first add-in in the results.
- Click Add and accept the terms and policies.
- Configure the Add-in with OpenAI API Key:
- The add-in will prompt for an OpenAI API key.
- Go to OpenAI.com" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">OpenAI’s website.
- Create an account or log in.
- Navigate to the dashboard and select View Application.
- Go to the API keys section and click Create new secret key.
- Name the key (e.g., "Excel") and generate it.
- Copy the generated key.
- Paste the key into the Excel add-in configuration panel and click Apply.
How to Use the ChatGPT Add-in in Excel
- Available Formulas in the Add-in:
=there.answer(): Returns answers to questions.=there.list(): Generates lists and populates multiple cells (useful for tables).=there.complete(): Completes ranges or extracts specific data.=there.format(): Converts text into specific formats.=there.translate(): Translates text.
- Example 1: Creating a Table
- Enter a prompt in a cell (e.g., “Create a table with Andalusian provinces and their population”).
- Use the
=there.list()formula referencing the prompt cell. - The AI generates the table directly in Excel with two columns.
- Example 2: Creating Formulas Without Prior Knowledge
- Use prompts to ask ChatGPT to create formulas.
- For instance, to calculate the average population:
- Write a prompt describing the task (e.g., “Calculate the average of these numbers”).
- Use the
=there.as()formula, referencing the prompt and the range of numbers. - The AI returns the calculated average without manually writing the formula.
Benefits Highlighted
- Simplifies Excel usage by leveraging AI for data generation, formula creation, and data analysis.
