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.

Yeah your using it wrong. It doesnt do that lookup and analyze stuff. Write a program to do that. Or maybe ask copilot to write a program.
But you could talk to it about the big pitcher stuff youre trying to do and various techniques that might yield inciteful info. It knows lots of stuff and i thought it was good for discussing strategy.
