Numerai – A hedge fund built by a global community of anonymous data scientists
&quot;It&#x27;s just a pure math problem. It&#x27;s like a math competition. You don&#x27;t need to know anything about finance, you don&#x27;t know anything about hedge funds... you don&#x27;t even have to speak English...&quot;<p>This is not a pure math problem. Eventually the outcome of all these models and predictions affects the stock prices and - if it becomes as successful as you hope - the economy as a whole. And the physical world: people, animals, plants, pollution, CO2 and so on.<p>I would much rather see work in that area - than this data juggling deep learning bullshit which results in profits being paid out to a bunch of intelligent, greedy and unwise people.<p>I just hope that when the intelligent people finally become wise, it won&#x27;t be too late.
