My AI Awakening Happened in New York City
By Vic Lederman, editorial director, Chaikin Analytics
Soon after ChatGPT burst onto the scene last year, I went to New York City for work...
I was making small talk with someone at a company that's part of the fabric of Wall Street. And during our conversation, ChatGPT came up...
Until then, I had mostly heard about the problems with the generative artificial-intelligence ("AI") tool. After all, it can produce some goofy results.
Heck, the chief technology officer at the company that created ChatGPT even sees the problem. Back in February, she told Time magazine that the tool "may make up facts."
So I made a joke about these flaws with my new Wall Street friend. I expected the guy to laugh and bash AI's weaknesses with me. But he didn't. In fact, he leaned in and said...
"Vic, we're using it already."
That got my attention. I knew I needed to hear more. So I asked, "Oh yeah, how so?"
That's when he told me something I didn't expect...
Half the top 300 financial institutions, the Department of Defense, and the brightest minds at Harvard University, London Business School, and the University of Chicago await one man's prediction for the rest of 2023. Don't be left out – click here to see the full 2023 warning before today's opening bell.
Since 2010, one little-known trading strategy has booked a 94% success rate and is as close to a Holy Grail as anything we've seen. It's a way to target the best companies in the market and instantly collect payouts of $100s at a time, without ever touching a single stock upfront. By tomorrow, click here to learn more (includes a free recommendation).
Before my trip to New York City, I saw the new generative-AI trend as the next "craze" or the latest "buzzword" in the world. But that all changed in a Manhattan office building...
My new Wall Street friend helped me see the reality of the situation.
"We use it for all kinds of stuff," he said.
He explained how his company uses AI to summarize calls. It uses the technology to make bulleted lists from large presentations. And it even uses AI to craft messages to the public.
I can't speak for every company in finance. But I now know at least one company in this industry is using AI for all sorts of things.
According to my new Wall Street friend, "It's saving hundreds of hours." And what's more, people at the company love using it...
I love writing. But as I've learned over the years, many people struggle with that task. For whatever reason, that's especially true for folks who deal with a lot of numbers every day.
So in a company packed with those types of people, the AI tool makes writing fun for them.
And in case you were wondering, my Wall Street friend said errors aren't a problem like they are with ChatGPT....
A human is always in the loop. The AI tool just does the first batch of heavy lifting for them.
Folks, we're talking about one of the most professional settings you can imagine. This Wall Street company is responsible for hundreds of millions of dollars.
So I hope my point is clear...
Even in its infancy, AI is making a difference in the financial world.
On Friday, Chaikin Analytics founder Marc Chaikin explained how the "AI curmudgeons" are out in full force. They'll try to tell you that all the excitement today is overblown.
But after my work trip to New York City, I simply can't be one of them. I've seen firsthand how a real business at the highest levels of finance is using AI to improve its productivity.
You need to pay attention to this trend.
Good investing,
Vic Lederman
Editor's note: Marc recently told Fox Business that "AI changed the equation"...
Like the Internet in the 1990s, this technology is here to stay. And it already has massive buy-in from the biggest and most well-established tech companies of the past 20 years.
But AI can also be scary. It's critical to find the right ways to play the trend. To that point, you don't want to miss Marc's brand-new presentation...
Specifically, he has identified five companies that Wall Street is focusing on in the coming AI boom – including one stock that's trading for 1/12th the price of Nvidia (NVDA). Watch the presentation right here.
