Developer here: I think AI is great tool to parse large amounts of financial documents and extract insights from them. This is a tool towards that end.
I also think the best information one can find is in SEC reports like 10Q 10K, which is the main source of analysis here.

Don't understand all this hate lately. No CEO of any of these big companies cares about me, not even remotely.
OpenAI sped up the democratization of LLMs by atleast a few years, and although that's mostly thanks to their engineers, I'd like to thank Altman as well.
I'm a software engineer and so much of my work has gotten significantly easier because of OpenAI.
Same feedback as a bunch of other users, super slow.
I opened the demo link but it didn't load for 25 seconds, so closing the website now.
TIL that Intel had the opportunity to invest in OpenAI! Sheesh.
Just want to say, this is pretty cool.
I think a single turn app like this one might not be very beneficial. I've used LLMs to brainstorm startup ideas and they almost never are creative enough.
I think the benefit of LLMs here is doing market research, finding risk, asking questions, etc. Someone showed a pretty cool demo of Perplexity doing some of this stuff recently.
I was recently at a non-AI security conference and was passing through a hallway. Heard the term AI like 10 times in 10 minutes.
Everytime that happens, I go back to that meme that got created after Google's IO when Sundar Pichai said "ai, ai, ai..." like 113 times.
I didn't build a game but I was incredibly excited to see if neural networks could work in financial markets, so built a few systems to trade using price data.
Spoiler alert: they absolutely do not work in their vanilla form (every article that says they do is wrong). But it was a good learning experience.
