> Grok ended up performing the best while DeepSeek came close to second. Almost all the models had a tech-heavy portfolio which led them to do well. Gemini ended up in last place since it was the only one that had a large portfolio of non-tech stocks.

I'm not an investor or researcher, but this triggers my spidey sense... it seems to imply they aren't measuring what they think they are.

I don't feel like they measured anything. They just confirmed that tech stocks in the US did pretty well.

They measured the investment facility of all those LLMs. That's pretty much what the title says. And they had dramatically different outcomes. So that tells me something.

I mean, what it kinda tells me is that people talk about tech stocks the most, so that's what was most prevalent in the training data, so that's what most of the LLMs said to invest in. That's the kind of strategy that works until it really doesn't.

Cue 2020 or so. I do have investments in tech stocks but I have a lot more conservative investments too.
