    To a large extent, Excel (and the like) democratized programming by making its power avaible to non-experts to solve their problems on their own. What will be the Excel of machine learning? Chances are it may just be... Excel. It makes sense to collocate the AI with the data.

        I'd say R or Python are the tools anybody can learn. Excel is just useless.

        The problem with excel is it presents the data and hides the transformations of the data. You can do anything in excel but the interaction model encourages you not to think about algorithms. This impacts your thinking in subtle ways which inhibit ML exploration.

        Is the limit of 1,048,576 rows (20 bits) by 16,384 columns (14 bits) a problem ?

        The real problem is Excel can't even handle more than 50k rows without lagging (on an average of)
