AI kept hallucinating financial numbers. So I banned it from touching them.
by•
I was building a tool to analyse SEC filings and kept hitting the same problem. The AI would summarise a 10-K and invent revenue figures. Not close. Wrong. Confidently wrong.
So I split the job. Financial figures come directly from the SEC's XBRL structured data feeds. The AI reads the text and flags red flags. It never touches a number.
Every claim links back to the verbatim paragraph in the original EDGAR filing. One click to the source.
The result is Sharpread. Forensic SEC filing analysis where the AI reads the filings but never generates the numbers.
If you invest in individual stocks and actually read 10-Ks, it might be useful.
What parts of your stack have you deliberately kept AI away from, and why?
