LUNCH & CONNECT #230 | CAN AI PICK STOCKS BETTER THAN HUMANS?
11:30–13:30 | Thursday, 09 October 2025
Throughout financial history, major revolutions have always begun by challenging old beliefs. Suppose the rise of fundamental analysis and technical analysis defined the 20th century. In that case, the 21st century poses a new question: Can AI redefine the art of stock-picking – once considered the stronghold of human expertise?
At Lunch & Connect #230, we will not only explore the question: “Can AI pick stocks better than humans?” but also go further: “How should we redefine the role of humans in the age of AI?”
