OpenAI has introduced a new feature in ChatGPT called “Pulse.” This personal assistant-style tool provides daily updates tailored to what you’re interested in, working for you overnight.
As more retail traders turn to AI for help with stock and crypto trading, Pulse could play a significant role. OpenAI notes that while users usually ask questions to get answers, this feature shifts the focus. Instead of always prompting the AI, it delivers relevant updates based on your preferences.
Pulse collects information from your chat history and feedback to figure out what matters most to you. It brings together updates in easy-to-read visual cards, helping you kickstart your day with focused insights. Users can ask for updates on various topics—like local news or crypto trends—and get regular alerts.
Sam Altman, CEO of OpenAI, highlighted that Pulse transforms ChatGPT from merely reactive to proactive and personalized. Currently, this feature is available for Pro subscribers, with plans to extend it to Plus subscribers later.
The demand for AI in trading is on the rise. A recent survey by Finder revealed that 16% of British investors have sought AI help for stock advice and 15% for crypto tips. Notably, 40% of respondents use AI for personal finance management, and this rises to 65% among Gen Z and 61% among Millennials.
In 2023, a comparison of ChatGPT’s crypto advice revealed how its suggestions have evolved. Back then, it recommended Bitcoin and Ether. Now, strategies differ, with a notable mention of a lesser-known memecoin, Little Pepe. This shift cautions traders against relying too heavily on AI for financial decisions, as OpenAI has advised that its tools are not meant for professional financial guidance.
The growing confidence in AI-driven trading tools has sparked the creation of a new robo-advisory market, projected to surge from $61.75 billion in 2022 to $470.91 billion by 2029, according to Research and Markets.
With Pulse, users can also link their Google accounts, allowing the feature to suggest agendas or travel recommendations. Such personalized features aim to enhance user experience, making daily planning simpler.
