Event Description

The release of Chat-GPT on November 20, 2022 led many, including a number of Big Tech CEOs and Wall Street, to herald the transformative potential of Generative AI for the global economy. But just as many argue that it is hype and contributing to a Big Tech Bubble. As Charlie Munger of Berkshire Hathaway has quipped, "I think old-fashioned intelligence works pretty well." This lecture will investigate a number of important issues in financial markets, such as stock market sentiment and climate change. 

Event Speaker

Markus Leippold, Professor of Financial Engineering at the University of Zurich
