The AI head at Two Sigma, earning roughly $1 million a year, recently publicly explained how their $60 billion fund uses large language models to predict market prices.
He spent 12 years at Google before leaving to join Two Sigma and building the AI team from scratch. In a 30-minute talk, he laid out quite clearly how Wall Street’s most secretive quantitative fund uses AI.
This fund hasn’t lost money in over 20 years, since 2001. So their approach is indeed worth listening to.
