Most of the definitions I've heard of AGI are that it outperforms humans at complex professional tasks. That would include capital allocation.




Capital allocation is not an IQ problem with only one correct solution that can be made only with hard data.

That sounds like the finance bro version of mystical woo. There's nothing special about it. There must be doctors who say diagnosis is an art form. But AI will still out perform the diagnosis.

You misunderstood.

AI can calculate stuff that can be measured and calculated.

But investing (in stocks or otherwise) is not that. Investing is about the phychology of the people (all other investors). If investors as a whole make stupid decisions, the market movements make their decisions correct (like the incredibly stupid drop in Nvidia's stock due to release of Deepseek). AI can be more objective and better at calculating facts, but it doesn't matter if the market is driven by emotions and people.
