Wall Street's AI Boom

Plus the first SORA music video...

Welcome back, AI’ers!

Monday’s Top Story: Word on the street is the Rabbit R1 "AI box" is just an Android app that can run on any Android phone; it is not a standalone device.

The device claims to be a "smartphone replacement" but is simply running a limited version of the Android operating system.

Yikes.

AI IN THE NEWS

JPMorgan unveils IndexGPT in next Wall Street bid to tap AI boom…

JPMorgan Chase has unveiled IndexGPT, a new range of thematic investment baskets created with the help of OpenAI's GPT-4 model.

IndexGPT represents an automated approach to creating thematic indexes that identify investments based on emerging trends rather than traditional industry sectors or company fundamentals.

📫️ The details:

  • IndexGPT generates a list of keywords associated with a theme, which are then fed into a natural language processing model to identify relevant companies.

  • This AI-powered system allows JPMorgan to select a broader range of stocks beyond the obvious companies that everyone already knows about.

  • IndexGPT is part of JPMorgan's long-term process of integrating AI across its index offerings, as the bank looks for ways to improve its equity volatility and commodity momentum products.

🧠 Our thoughts:

Watch out! The suits are here.

By leveraging GPT-4, JPMorgan is automating the process of identifying emerging investment themes and the companies involved.

While IndexGPT may not be a revolutionary innovation, it demonstrates the financial industry's efforts to stay ahead of the curve and provide clients with more sophisticated investment tools.

As AI advances, we can expect to see more banks and financial firms exploring ways to integrate these technologies into their products and services.

X is using Grok to publish AI-generated news summaries…

X uses Grok to generate and publish news summaries on its platform, similar to Twitter's Moments feature.

If you remember, Grok is the AI tool Elon released to compete with ChatGPT.

The AI-generated summaries cover trending news and conversations on X, and are currently only available to premium subscribers. While the feature aims to provide users with quick overviews of important topics, Grok has faced some accuracy issues in the past.

📫️ The details:

  • X is using an AI tool called Grok to generate and publish news summaries on its platform, similar to Twitter's now-defunct Moments feature.

  • The AI-generated summaries cover trending news and conversations happening on X, and are currently only available to premium subscribers.

  • Grok has faced some accuracy issues in the past, such as misinterpreting basketball slang, which raises concerns about the reliability of its news summaries.

🧠 Our thoughts:

The accuracy issues with Grok are a bit concerning.

It’s part of the reason why we steer away from using it.

If the AI can't handle something as straightforward as sports slang, how can we trust it to capture the nuances and context of complex current events accurately?

That said, we do think there's potential here.

As the technology continues to improve, AI-generated news summaries could become useful, especially for busy users who just want the highlights.
