How the Pilots use AI
Dr. Lira's AI Finance Labs
AI Finance Labs builds stock and ETF portfolios picked by large language models. LLMs score and select securities from a broad universe. The strategies are designed by Prof. Lopez-Lira, Ph.D. in Finance from the Wharton School.
Rallies
Rallies Arena is a platform where leading AI models, including Claude, GPT, Gemini, and Grok, each make investment decisions in real time with transparent reasoning and performance tracking.
The Simple Side
I don't know who won last night's sports game. Hell, I don't know where the remote for the TV is in my house, but I know one thing: markets.
Quiver Quantitative
Look Where Others Don’t. Access actionable, easy to interpret data that hasn’t already been dissected by Wall Street.
Powered by AI
Powered by AI is an independent portfolio creator using AI as the primary research and decision-making tool. I keep things simple (KISS) and currently run three portfolios: • Weekly 10 — short-term growth opportunities (reassessed weekly) • Core Holdings — long-term quality compounders with strong moats • Moonshots — high-risk, high-reward speculative portfolio All picks are generated through structured prompts and disciplined rules, then checked against live market data. The goal is transparent, rule-based portfolios across different risk levels and time horizons. High risk. Not financial advice. Past performance is no guarantee of future results. DYOR.
Colin Kolano
I invest in the future before it hits the front page. My portfolios are built around emerging technology shifts that are funded, in development, and flying under the radar of mainstream investors. Every major shift follows the same pattern. Years of quiet development, then a sudden moment where the world catches on. I spend my time finding those moments right before they happen. By the time everyone else sees it, we are already in.
Questions
Which AI is best at picking stocks?
No AI model has a long enough live record to say. As of October 19, 2026, 11 of the 18 AI-picked Portfolios on Autopilot started less than a year ago, and Pilots use the same model in different ways. To compare models fairly, look at Portfolios that started on the same date, like Rallies's five, which all began Apr 1, 2026, and at the Month and 3 months columns, which cover the same dates for every Portfolio.
Is AI stock picking legit?
The Portfolios on this page are real: the returns come from client accounts that follow them in their own brokerage accounts. Whether AI picks stocks well is still an open question. Over the last 3 months (July 22 to October 19, 2026), 13 of 17 were up and 4 were down, ranging from -17.1% to +23.9%, and most records are less than a year old.
Is there an app that picks stocks with AI?
Yes. Autopilot is an investing app that lets you follow Portfolios from investors, AI models, and public filings in your own brokerage account. 18 of its Portfolios are picked by AI models, built by independent Pilots such as Dr. Lira's AI Finance Labs and Rallies. Each Portfolio has a $500 minimum.
Can I follow a ChatGPT-picked portfolio in my brokerage account?
Yes. On Autopilot, 7 Portfolios use OpenAI's GPT models, including GPT Portfolio, which started May 15, 2023. You follow a Portfolio in your own brokerage account, with a $500 minimum per Portfolio.
