Terrifying that people are creating financial models with AI when they don’t have the skills to verify the model does what they expect

They have an excel sheet next to it - they can test it against that. Plus they can ask questions if something seems off and have it explain the code.

I'm not sure being able to verify that it's vaguely correct really solves the issue. Consider how many edge cases inhabit a "30 sheet, mind-numbingly complicated" Excel document. Verifying equivalence sounds nontrivial, to put it mildly.

They don't care. This is clearly someone looking to score points and impress with the AI magic trick.

The best part is that they can say the AI will get some stuff wrong, they knew that, and it's not their fault when it breaks. Or more likely, it'll break in subtle ways, nobody will ever notice and the consequences won't be traced back to this. YOLO!
