Interview: Public Co-CEO Leif Abraham

The last several years have seen quite the rollercoaster of investment-related trends: meme stonks, SPACs, crypto, and now… Treasuries? Another emerging trend: generative AI. In this episode, I had the chance to sit down with investing app Public’s co-CEO Leif Abraham to talk about all of that and more, including:

* How AI for investing is and isn’t different than previous trends like PFMs and roboadvisors

* How Public got comfortable deploying user-facing AI capabilities

* Why Public ended payment for order flow (PFOF) and decided to accept “tips”

* How Public stands out in a crowded investing market

* and more!

Also, a big congrats to the Public team on today’s announcement of their expansion to the UK market!
