Yet another article that talks about using ChatGPT for your finances. As usual for these articles, it both explicitly says that ChatGPT gets things ruinously wrong, and frames things as if using ChatGPT for your finances is a perfectly reasonable thing to do.
Make sure to triple check all the numbers and suggestions it gives you, because some of the suggestions we got made no sense and were totally incorrect — if I had followed what ChatGPT suggested, it could have seriously wrecked my credit score and got me in even more debt.
Here’s what I did and how you can do the same
I continue to be baffled by this kind of take. If you went to a human financial adviser and they gave you advice that would wreck your credit score, you wouldn’t say “So when you go to this adviser, be sure to check their numbers!”; you would say “Don’t go to this adviser.”
