Can you really trust AI to clean your data?
I put Microsoft Copilot for Excel to the test using a "legacy system" dataset. I intentionally planted 7 common data errors (traps) to see if it could find them... but the result actually shocked me.
Not only did it catch all my traps, but it found a hidden typo I didn't even know I made!
In this video, you’ll learn:
- How to use the 2026 "Clean Data" Agent in Excel.
- The exact prompts I used to fix typos, names, and phone numbers.
- Why "making it blank" is sometimes better than fixing bad data.
- Bonus: Using Copilot for instant Currency and Phone Number formatting.
If you're tired of manual data entry, this magician is about to save you hours.
