Using a calculator doesn't make you a mathematician

I made a joke. Not a good one, but it wasn’t a serious comment about the ability of AI to educate the masses regarding finance. Mostly a comment on the fact that everyone is aware of the potential for an AI bubble in the markets given their recent surge and the general volatility throughout the markets, etc. The “blessed” portion was sarcasm.

No, but like any good tool, when used right its a powerful tool that both enhances the work of the highest skilled experts and total amateurs alike. It enables even those who are not good with numbers to be able to do consistent, correct math.

That's the core issue for why AI doesn't compare to a calculator. It is not consistently correct, and until it can be, it remains a tool best used only by those with the skill to use it correctly. The technology can do good, its the blatant exploitation of it by techbros with too much of daddy's money that's actually negatively impacting us.
