AI models err on 57% of financial queries; researcher blames marketing for over-reliance
gerardsans · x · 2026-09-21
Responding to news that top models from ChatGPT, Claude, Copilot, Grok and Gemini gave wrong answers to 57% of financial queries, gerardsans argues this exposes the hype-reality gap: LLMs are 'a sampler with training corpus coverage and external verification gaps', not AGI.
He adds that since labs aren't liable for the gap, marketing leads consumers to over-reliance and overconfidence.
