Current AI models struggle with interpreting complex financial documents, especially with visual data extraction. GPT-5.4, Gemini 3.1 Pro, and Claude Opus 4.6 consistently falter when processing dense charts and images, only achieving 56% to 64% accuracy compared to 72% to 80% with text-only inputs. These findings highlight significant gaps in AI's ability to perform real-world financial reasoning tasks, making the displacement of financial analysts with AI appear premature.
