Understanding AI and Its Applications in Finance
AI, particularly machine learning and natural language processing, has revolutionized how the finance industry operates. Unlike traditional tools like Excel, which follow static formulas, AI systems learn from data inputs and continuously improve their outputs. For instance, machine learning algorithms can recognize patterns that inform investment decisions or fraud detection. The emergence of generative AI, such as ChatGPT, allows finance professionals to interact in natural language, simplifying the way they access and process information.
