Yuan Zou, Assistant Professor at Harvard Business School is hosting CEO David Trainer along with Kris Bennatti (Hudson Labs) and Ron Levin (Alumni Ventures) for a panel discussion on the AI’s impact on investing.
The panel will be April 8th, 2026. Topics of discussion will include:
- How AI will replace analysts and portfolio managers,
- How much the market is understating AI,
- The limitations of current AI,
- How high-quality data is essential to building reliable AI,
- and more.
David will share detailed perspectives on what it takes to build an AI platform that delivers truly actionable investment insights based on his 20+ years of experience building New Constructs and, more recently, experience building FinSights, our AI agent from Google Cloud.
“AI needs better data before professionals will trust it with important, non-administrative tasks,“ said David Trainer. “The next generation of AI leaders will excel at teaching machines to configure data into real insights, proven to deliver alpha. That’s what we’ve been working on and why Google chose to build FinSights based on our data.” See Figure 1, below, from David’s slide deck.
