I played with copilot on github but it didn't rub me the right way. I really need to know how (or that) my code works 100%.
I’ve been futzing with Bing, Bard, ChatGPT for some time. It’s just useless for me. I’m kind of interested in seeing if I can put a LLM on my PC and have it do something actually useful on financial data. But I’m getting less hopeful. It just doesn’t seem built for actual analytical, accurate work.

I wasted more time today asking Bard for a list of every S&P 500 name with increasing 2023 EPS estimates over the past 30 days. Repeated prompts, gave it clear instructions, repeated incomplete and inaccurate answers all the time. Finally I decided WTF, I can do that in five minutes using the tools I already have.

Played with Pi, a mini LLM you can install on your phone. Repeated the “summarize WSM 1Q23 transcript” thing. Same bogus invented stuff.
