Welcome to episode one of Investing with AI Podcast for Financial Analysts.
Weâve spent years in investing, and over the past couple years, weâve been deep in the weeds with AI. Testing tools. Working with firms. Trying to understand what matters versus whatâs just noise.
For a while, most of it didnât feel that useful but thatâs starting to change rapidly.
In this episode, we talk through whatâs shifted, from basic chatbots to more agent-based workflows, and why thatâs starting to matter for investors, analysts, and buy-side teams.
We get into:
The difference between AI chat tools and agent workflowsWhy AI felt overhyped before and whatâs different nowWhere AI is actually useful in investment research todayThe limitations that still exist (and there are a lot)How investors should start thinking about using AI in their processWeâre not coming at this as âexpertsâ with all the answers. Weâre in it every day, testing, breaking things, and trying to understand where this is going.
The goal of this podcast is simple:
Bring you along as we learn, and give you a clearer view of how AI is actually being used in investing.If youâre working in equity research, hedge funds, or the buy side and trying to make sense of AI, this is a good place to start.
