This week from Monday, March, 18th (for preliminary workshops) through Wednesday March 20th, the Metropolitan Pavilion will be the site of one of the most intriguing and complex business conferences to hit Manhattan’s financial community. Titled “AI In Data Science and Trading, the event offers a range of key sessions and panels addressing the impact of artificial intelligence technology on the financial world.
As an AI engineer, Michael F. Horwitz, explained when asked as to what is going on is this community, he wrote, “A quiet tsunami is raising. All industries are entering a 4th revolution that will change everything — artificial intelligence. Those two words suggest both something scary, and incredibly promising. The financial sector is among those most affected as digitization has consumed it and altered it irrevocably. In our immediate future, it won’t be a fund manager who will decide to sell your 401K GM stocks to buy Apple ones, but an Artificial Intelligence engine located in the cloud. This will affect tens of thousands of qualified workers: traders, portfolio managers, analysts. It might also allow investors to get more alpha: higher return and less risk. Some already claim market crashes will be a thing from the past.”
This conference regarding AI and Asset Management will cover such topics as:
• Risk Management & Regulation
• Quant for Fundamentals
• Quantitative Methods
• Use of Alternative Data
• Artificial Intelligence
• Technology, Infrastructure & Innovation
As the conference brochure explains: “The potential presented to investment banking is both a profit opportunity (via increased flexibility and speed) as well as a cost reduction play (reduced headcount via automation). Either way, technology is a critical competitive differentiator and attending AI & Data Science in Trading will allow you to benchmark your business and create a winning strategy.”
