Stay Ahead Of The Curve: AI Weekly AI in Options Trading: Bet on the Data Options are derivatives that allow (but not oblige!) you to buy or sell a specific security at a certain price, known as the strike price, within a specified time period. The options that allow the holder to buy the security at the strike price before maturity are known as call options. Their counterparts providing for selling the underlying asset are referred to as put options. American options normally allow exercising (in other words, carrying out the transaction specified by the terms of the options contract) at any point within the period they cover, while European options can limit the window of opportunity to the time of their maturity. It is quite easy to see why predictive AI and options contracts click so well together. In most cases, to make a profit on options, you need to have a picture of what happens next on the securities that you are working with. A skilled trader would conduct extensive research into the company and the market it is working on to figure out what the future could have it store for it and trade accordingly. An AI-generated forecast would come in handy here, joining the arsenal of the tools of the trade alongside technical or fundamental analysis. Derived exclusively from objective data and lacking any human bias or emotion, the AI would compliment the trader’s own skills and brilliance. Read more.

AI Hedge Fund: Bridgewater Using AI to Increase Profits and Productivity Ray Dalio founded the largest hedge fund firm in the world called Bridgewater Associates which was established in June of 1975, the hedge fund manages $160 billion. Ray Dalio is attempting to essentially upload his philosophy to an operating system. The project comes from the guidelines that employees follow. Data would be taken and incorporated into the new system’s algorithm which will include peer reviews and employee testing in order to place employees in certain roles, dealing with specific tasks and the system will also guide management in hiring, firing and promotions.



The philosophy of the founder surrounds his view of humans and the idea that they are complex machines. Emotions are seen as unnecessary in the functionality of the human machine and will inevitably hinder performance. The AI operating system will guide employees, through a GPS type framework, down to how they should spend their time or if they should make a call at any specific time with the end goal being efficiency of employee work.

MarketWatch Press Release: AI-Driven Bulwark Against Market Unpredictability When it comes to the intricacies and details that a model has to be aware of to deliver the alpha, we have to note that, in absolute terms, every new variable added to any model results in lower precision. Even a good, relevant predictor adds extra noise, and redundant predictors can lead to over-fitting, which can make the model commercially unviable. This, however, does not mean that we have to reject predictive AI as a tool for investors. What we need to do, however, is to recognize it as just that as a helpful and reliable tool that is there to compliment the human brilliance, not replace it. This question takes aim at the very foundation of human cognition versus that of an AI. Humans, as the discipline of knowledge management argues, start with data to derive information from it. From there, we go to knowledge, which is, strictly speaking, our understanding of the information, reinforced over multiple iterations and significantly more thorough and nuanced. From there, we go to wisdom — our ability to leverage this knowledge to deliver the outcomes we want. Read more.
