Machine learning is a set of computer programs that learn patterns from large amounts of data and improve their predictions or decisions over time, like a recipe that gets better each time it’s adjusted based on taste tests. For investors it matters because these systems can speed up analysis, spot trends or risks humans might miss, automate routine work, and potentially create competitive advantages or cost savings that affect a company’s performance.
frontier modelstechnical
Frontier models are the most powerful and cutting-edge artificial intelligence systems, trained on massive amounts of data to perform complex tasks like generating text, analyzing images, or making predictions. For investors, they matter because they can create significant advantages or risks for companies — like a new industrial machine that radically boosts productivity or a costly, unproven technology that attracts regulatory scrutiny and high ongoing costs — affecting growth prospects, margins, and competitive position.
agentic AItechnical
Agentic AI refers to computer systems that can make their own decisions and take actions without needing someone to tell them what to do each time. It's like giving a robot a degree of independence to solve problems or achieve goals on its own, which matters because it could change how we work and interact with technology in everyday life.
generative AItechnical
Generative AI is a type of computer technology that can create new content, like text, images, or music, on its own. It’s important because it can produce realistic and useful material quickly, which could change how we create art, write stories, or even develop new products. Think of it as a smart robot that can invent and produce things almost like a human.
advanced analyticstechnical
Advanced analytics involves using sophisticated techniques and tools to examine large amounts of data, uncover patterns, and generate insights that might not be obvious at first glance. For investors, it’s like using a high-powered microscope to see details that help predict future trends or make better decisions. This approach helps turn complex information into clear, actionable knowledge.
