    James, are systems created by AI profitable at all then? Based on your comments, AI created systems will side with the majority, and hence will lose in trading: majority loses trading markets. Correct?

    I've seen profitable ones, but they often have undesirable features like holding for years at a time.

    The tech is rapidly improving but you have to tell them what you want specifically, just asking for a generally profitable strategy isn't going to get you something compelling.

    Essentially everything I've built with them has also had errors so you have to be able to do your own code review.

    I've spent a lot of time playing with this stuff as it's clear that it's going to change essentially every industry in the next few years, but if you want to get a good grasp of its limitations try asking ChatGPT to design a novel experiment to advance a unified field theory.

    What you get back is essentially just experiments that have already been proposed by scientists in literature. It doesn't know more than current humans, it's just better at aggregating data.

    Agreed.  This is the difference

    Agreed.  This is the difference between today's AI and AGI (Articicial General Intelligence).  Once AI learns how to 'think' with new potential data models, given it's power already demonstrated in aggregating vast amounts of data - look out and I don't think we are too far away.   The other thing worthy of note is even without AGI, there are sooooo many jobs that AI makes vastly easier/more powerful/efficient it will have a profound impact in it's current form.  There is a lot of money to be made providing ChapGPT like, customized and updateable data models for every industry on earth.  A wealth of companies are being launched to fill this gap.

    Yep, ChatGPT is very limited

    Yep, ChatGPT is very limited without the ability to link to and prompt other systems and then iterate based on the data it receives. Almost gimmicky in the public facing version. 

    Even the integrated stuff is

    Even the integrated stuff is bad at the moment, i run a couple thousand or so queries a day through autogpt using the gpt4 model and the results are underwhelming at best. I find i have to give it very short, very specific goals and do a lot of hand holding to advance projects.

    James - that's awesome that you are playing with it at all! I'm jealous. Need to devote some time to coding again before this revolution passes me up.

    Not if they backtest and optimize the system they create....it is possible. Have to be willing to iterate after that...just like in real life.   The trick is having an AI that is able to access live data sets....which is NOT ChatGPT.
