Indeed, there are those who predict, given current trends, that the first Turing Test passing AI will not come of some scientific project, nor government (especially not military), but from the trading houses - perhaps one forced, by customers or regulation, to explain its decisions in a human language."<br><br>Yeah, I worked on many scientific projects from Gravitational Waves (I was part of LIGO and did my dissertation on this topic) to the neuroscience of sleep (my other company Deepwave is trying to commercialize my IP to improve cognition and memory by enhancing deep sleep) but algo trading is one most intellectually rewarding experience because you cannot bullshit out of it via p value fishing or other stat massaging (that unfortunately happens a lot in social and even biomed studies). If you have alpha it will show up over time otherwise you cannot survive in this business for long.
