People have hooked up scripts to automate trade based on celebrities using certain hashtags or other data for years.
A non insignificant portion of people has absolutely hooked up an ai to it. I don’t know any, but i take that bet in a heartbeat.
Some will do it responsibly, as an experiment with money they are prepared to loose.
Ai companies themselves might try this as an internal test, like how atrophic has claude managing a real vending machine (which got manipulated into selling tungsten cubes following customer feedback)
Others have probably completely destroyed their own lives. A few may have lucked out.
I recall a story years ago that whenever Ann Hathaway has a bad news story Berkshire Hathaway also takes a dip because high frequency trading scrips are idiots.
Is that the same AI vending machine that attempted to alert company security (i think) when told it was going to be taken offline and also tried to set up physical meetings with people, even describing its outfit? Or am I thinking of another?
All the creepy surrealistic AI stuff starts to run together for me after awhile lol
If its critical, don’t give it to ai without having a secured backup it can’t touch.
I wonder if anyone has ever given AI access to their stock portfolio and a means to trade?
That is most trading by volume, but it’s not using LLMs.

That’s the one.
Renaissance Technologies is arguably the world’s best hedge fund, and supposedly only uses AI based strategies.
High Flyer are the founders of DeepSeek, and are also all in on AI, though their performance is more volatile.
Pretty sure that’s just high-frequency trading.
High-frequency trading was around for ages before LLMs became a thing.
