It’s the 15th week of our “Is ChatGPT A Better Financial Advisor?” six-month series, and the tensions are palpable.
It’s been quite a ride, with 15 weeks now under our belts. The question still looms: Is ChatGPT A Better Financial Advisor? For those just tuning in, we gave ChatGPT a hypothetical $10,000 to manage, putting it up against seasoned funds like the SPDR S&P 500 ETF Trust (NYSE:QQQ).

While we’re putting AI to the test against some of the big dogs, it’s important to remember: ChatGPT doesn’t have real-time access to the market yet.
What we’re aiming for here isn’t to herald the era of robo-advisors, but to stir the pot and get investors thinking: How does AI fit into our financial future?
Join us next Wednesday as we roll into week 16 of the “Is ChatGPT A Better Financial Advisor?” series.
