How A.I. Traders Will Dominate Hedge Fund Industry | Marshall Chang | TEDxBeaconStreetSalon

We’ve seen fully automated bot beats us in Go, one-on-one Poker
and Dota II, now what’s going to happen for trading financial
markets? Listen to A.I. Capital Management sharing their research,
a Deep Learning trading agent that over-performs us in trading FX
markets. Marshall has been trading FX markets for 5 years. As a
Master in Finance graduate from Brandeis International Business
school, he combines his insight in financial markets with a passion
for machine learning and expertise in programming, striving to
build the first game-changing A.I. trading system to disrupt the
markets. He has a strong passion for quantitative trading and
machine learning and started AI Capital Management in September
2016. His inspiration came from Google DeepMind’s AlphaGo
project, which is a Deep Learning agent that beats human Go world
champions. Go, as a game with complexity at a number more than the
atom in the universe, is arguably as hard as or even harder than
trading financial markets, which they believe is the next game to
be solved with Artificial Intelligence. This talk was given at a
TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently
organized by a local community. Learn more at
