Harnessing the Power of ChatGPT and AI in Finance
Date Tuesday December 12th
Time 6:00.pm-07:00.pm Paris Time
We will hear from Alejandro Lopez-Lira, Assistant Professor of Finance at the University of Florida, about the growing capabilities of chatbots like ChatGPT and other AI systems for financial analysis and decision making.
He will discuss how advanced natural language processing can automatically synthesize and interpret textual data like news, earnings calls, and regulatory filings to generate insights for investment research and trading strategies.
However, these AI systems have limitations in reasoning and grounded judgment that require human oversight. Professor Lopez-Lira will explore implications for utilizing ChatGPT and similar technologies in portfolio management, risk modeling, fintech innovations, and new directions for financial AI research. The talk will focus on practical applications rather than technical details, providing an overview of harnessing the power of AI chatbots and language models in finance.
