ChatGPT would only be a 'B-minus student' of markets, State Street strategist who uses AI to pick stocks says

• ChatGPT would score around 80% submitting homework about markets, according to State Street's Matthew Bartolini.
• "ChatGPT would probably be a B-minus student… that's the surface level it gets," he told Bloomberg.
• Bartolini also broke down how he uses AI to help him to pick stocks for a fund that's up 11% year-to-date.

ChatGPT would score a "B-minus" if you assigned it homework about markets, according to a strategist who uses AI to help him pick stocks.

State Street managing director Matthew Bartolini said in an interview published Friday that the intelligent language bot can list surface-level investing knowledge but wouldn't score higher than 80% because it can't understand wider context.
