Cool stuff. I'm the CTO of Stargazr (stargazr.ai), a financial & operational AI for manufacturing companies; we started using transformers to process financial data in 2020, a bit before the GPT boom.
In our experience, things beyond very constrained function calling opens the door to explainability problems. We moved away from "based on the embeddings of this P&L, you should do X" towards "I called a function to generate your P&L, which is in this table; based on this you could think of applying these actions".
It's a loss in terms of semantics (the embeddings could pack more granular P&L observations over time) but much better in terms of explainability. I see other finance AIs such as SAP Joule also going in the same direction.
