Whether we like it or not, AI and ChatGPT are here, and they’re not going away. Most of us forget that AI has actually been around for years. While there’s plenty of potential and room for progress with AI, there are many concerns about what AI means for our finances, and that’s what we’ll be covering today.
We’re honored to have Jim Rickards on the podcast today. Jim is an economist, Wall Street veteran, former DOD advisor, and bestselling author of The New Great Depression and Currency Wars. We discussed Jim’s newest book, MoneyGPT, the future of AI in financial markets, and its ripple effects on your portfolio.
We explore the pros and cons of AI in the financial world. From hedge funds outsourcing decisions to AI to potential market meltdowns driven by algorithms, Jim lays out what’s at stake—and how you can protect yourself. We also dive into how AI intertwines with national security and why decision-making matters more than ever.
