bad news if you're a stock trader

The thing just managed arithmetic, it hasn't mastered Black-Scholes... yet. That's when the AI wars truly start. Wallstreet would throw dump trucks of money at something that could beat a Quant. Or even do it as good as a Quant, but slightly faster.

In theory BS should be right up its alley because GPT is essentially a stochastic probability machine at heart anyway.
