They discuss the importance of auditability and determinism in AI models for finance, addressing concerns about reproducibility and reliability. The conversation covers the use of multi-modality to incorporate various data sources like podcasts and videos, and the role of reasoning in providing high-quality, timely information. Josh shares use cases of Alpha, including key financial metric extraction, email monitoring, and deep-dive video analysis, and also touches on the model architecture, emphasizing a blend of internal and external language models optimized for finance-specific tasks. He also shares his vision for the future, including in-body AI and AI companions.
