I had a blast taking to Michael Watson who is the founder and CEO of Hedgineer.

"AI is the future. But not everyone is prepared for it. To effectively integrate AI into a company, it needs an organized, thorough, and secure inventory of data. Without one, every AI implementation remains incomplete because it only has access to a subset of the relevant information it needs.

Most hedge funds are built on disjointed networks of research portals, order management systems, and datasets. The ones that don't consolidate them will run the risk of falling behind the AI curve."
