They asked 1,000 adults to write their own prompts asking a language model for financial advice, then <a href="https://mitsloan.mit.edu/ideas-made-to-matter/ai-financial-advice-surprisingly-good-especially-if-you-ask-right-questions">simulated what would happen</a> if people aged 22 to 89 followed that advice across a lifetime. The headline is cheerful: the advice was good. It pushed people to save more, hold stocks, diversify, and take less risk as they aged. The lead researcher said the team was &ldquo;somewhat surprised by how good the advice was.&rdquo;</p>
