If done correctly it could actually be useful. It could read the input text, select the numbers above, and feed those numbers to the sum command.
But no, the language model is told to solve a mathematical equation with no assistance. Of course it's going to fail.
I'm pretty sure it just replaces itself with what it thinks is the correct Excel expression. That way the use can audit and correct the AI's work (and Microsoft isn't liable for miscalculations). Firing off to co-pilot every evaluation would be insanely irresponsible.
