This is a good example of Dunning-Kruger, no offense. Sentiment analysis has been used as a tool to guide investments since the late 90s and there are companies out there who have been doing it for decades. LLMs didn't really break any new ground here, they just made this more accessible for the masses.

LLMs are a gigantic leap forward from any traditional sentiment analysis I've seen. Pre-2013, bag-of-words and TF-IDF were still state of the art. Call me out if you think I'm wrong, but hand-waving away the transformative power of LLMs here because we had some sentiment analysis approaches before seems unfair.
