Applied AIHe brought AI to Wall Street in 1994 — but won’t trust ChatGPT with his money
When a quant who’s run AI in production for decades won’t let a general-purpose LLM near his portfolio, that’s a signal about domain-specific guardrails, not luddism.

Tech giants are getting caught in a compute conundrum
When Microsoft’s stock is whipsawed by the same AI compute it’s selling, you’re seeing the limits of “infinite cloud” meet physical capex and power constraints.
