So I’m finding that AI is a really good enhancement to my own intelligence, rather than a replacement for it.
I wanted to invest a little in some emerging technologies. I’d had a pretty good run with AI-based securities and wanted to roll some of those gains over into whatever “the next big thing” might be.
I use a LLAMA to help me identify what those technologies might be and the companies best suited for growth within each. I figured quantum computing would be one of them—I had actually been in IONQ for a bit before, getting whipsawed back and forth until I finally said enough and got out with a couple extra bucks.
However, it pointed out to me that quantum is today where AI was in 2012: certain in its potential, but more in the science project stage. I looked into that, and it seemed right. made a lot of sense.
It then highlighted some other interesting categories instead: grid modernization, commercial nuclear technology, satellite technology, space-based consumer technology, advanced health tech, metabolic biopharmaceuticals. It then provided a bunch of companies for me to consider. I dug into each to try to determine out which of themhave the highest wheat-to-chaff ratio, bounced my resulting list off AI, honed it, and I was ready to go.
I also used AI to help me figure out how to place the investments, specifically, which I should buy all upfront and which I should buy in stages. I then did some research into that process to figure out which parts of it made the most sense.
Then I made the buys.
In no way was I ever going to ask AI for five or ten hot companies and then throw money into whatever they came up with. But in terms of giving me a starting point, AI was fantastic at coming up with possibilities I would never have come up with myself, and ideas about approach that I hadn’t really given much thought to before.
As I say, I used AI to enhance my own intelligence, rather than replace it. I’m becoming a big fan.
