It could be news parsing, where it can turn news article text into data points that an investment model could imply market signals from.
Something similar could happen with transcripts of company investor calls, or any other text/audio companies put out. With the right prompt you can turn text into signals, the trick would be getting that prompt right (and prompt engineering to limit hallucinations as much as possible).

- Legend2440 2y agoSentiment analysis has always been done with ML models. It's one of those problems that can really only be solved with data.

- sfink 2y ago> the trick would be getting that prompt right (and prompt engineering to limit hallucinations as much as possible). Why do you have to get it right? Don't you just have to get it the same as everyone else, slightly faster?
- hluska 2y agoThat is the definition of ‘right’ in a trading context.
- kjkjadksj 2y agoOr you can just not use ai and build your own sentiment analysis metric that is actually going to work. E.g. maybe you make a word cloud of a bunch of recent news articles, you identify certain candidate words as positive sentiment or negative sentiment. Now you can score any new article by counting pattern matches with either list. Not really much initial work to set up, and you probably get much higher quality results than what hallucinating ai would get you, if you happened to find that magic prompt that is.
