Career Resources
Absolutely! Based on the most helpful WSO content, dedicating more time to studying AI can be a game-changer, especially in finance. AI and machine learning are increasingly shaping industries like hedge funds, private equity, and investment banking. For instance:
Hedge Funds: AI is revolutionizing the way hedge funds operate, from predictive analytics to algorithmic trading. Understanding AI can give you a competitive edge in identifying patterns and making data-driven decisions.
Career Growth: As highlighted in WSO threads, professionals who invest time in learning AI and machine learning often find themselves better positioned for roles in quantitative finance, data science, or even transitioning to tech-driven hedge funds.
Future-Proofing: With advancements like AGI (Artificial General Intelligence) on the horizon, having a solid foundation in AI ensures you're prepared for the inevitable shifts in the job market.
If you're considering this, start with structured courses, participate in competitions like Kaggle, and explore practical applications in finance. The payoff could be significant, both in terms of career opportunities and staying ahead in a rapidly evolving industry.

AI can automate the simple things and is a threat to low skilled workers, but it has a habit of hallucinating.
This is probably an overly simplistic view of the potential. This is why people need to study AI.
it'll do the simple like the crap commentaries, but I take great pride in my internal monthly commentary. I throw in stupid off topic stuff to keep it interesting. Every year I have to throw in the craziest piloting stunt ever tho: getting drunk in upper Manhattan, driving out to Teterboro, stealing a plane and landing it outside the bar on St. Nicholas st.. The owner was so impressed that he refused to press charges.
a year or two later a guy in a similar bar refused to believe it had happened, so he did it again.
That's like asking would you rather focus on newspapers or the internet in the 90s..you know the answer
Haha true. I just don't like geeky computer stuff like coding. Maybe I'm a newspaper guy. This is for the option to get a certificate in AI in grad school. I could just not do it, but I feel like AI is going to be a big thing and want to be prepared for the future. I just can't stress enough how much I hate coding. I'll have to learn more about the curriculum before I commit.
