In preparation

An AI stock tool is not an investment adviser. The legal difference matters.

This article has not been written yet. When published, it will cover: the registration line between education and advice under US rules, why a chatbot's confident output is not "advice" in the protected sense (and why that cuts both ways for the reader), and how to verify any adviser's registration through Investor.gov before paying anyone for guidance.

Planned sources: SEC Investor.gov registration resources, the Investment Advisers Act of 1940 overview, and our own scope policy as a worked example.
