The Analyst in the Prompt: Role, Retrieval, and Memory Biases in LLM Financial Analysis

Large Language Models (LLMs) increasingly use user context such as memory, profiles, and role prompts to personalize their responses. This personalization can affect evidence-based judgment: the same evidence may lead to different conclusions under different user contexts. Finance provides a high-stakes setting to study this problem because decisions often depend on interpreting long and complex documents. We test this using 3,575 SEC filings across twelve LLMs. We compare persona-conditioned retrieval, neutral retrieval, and memory-framed context to separate the effect of evidence selection from the effect of interpretation. We find that most user-context spillover comes from how models interpret the same evidence under different roles, rather than from retrieving different evidence. We then test two simple mitigation strategies: expressing the same investor mindset as a user profile instead of an assistant role, and separating evidence-based and personalized outputs. Both reduce spillover, but neither removes it completely, and their effectiveness varies substantially across models.

Jais 2: A Family of Arabic-Centric Open Large Language Models

Jais 2 is a family of Arabic-centric large language models developed jointly by MBZUAI, Cerebras, and Inception, designed to advance Arabic-centric language modeling, with strong performance across the Arabic and culturally grounded benchmarks evaluated in this report. The family includes, to our knowledge, the largest open Arabic-centric LLM trained from scratch at 70B parameters, and a competitive 8B-parameter variant among the evaluated open models. A custom Arabic-centric vocabulary enables efficient training and inference. In addition, an optimized architecture and training recipe yield highly compute-efficient training. With a substantially smaller token budget than comparable models, Jais 2 achieves strong Arabic performance on the benchmarks considered in this report and competitive English results. The models obtain leading results among the evaluated open models on OALL2 and AraGen. They also perform strongly on several culturally grounded Arabic benchmarks, including poetry, religion, cuisine, and dream interpretation, as well as in general tasks such as translation and summarization. We release the models in HuggingFace under a commercially permissive license. Jais 2 70B is also released as a chat app on the Web, iOS, and Android; it runs on Cerebras hardware, delivering up to 2,000 tokens per second, and enabling high-throughput Arabic-centric chat serving in our deployment setting. By uniting scale, linguistic diversity, cultural fidelity, openness, and speed, Jais 2 provides an open-weight foundation intended to support further research and development in Arabic-centric LLMs.
