Bloomberg just introduced BloombergGPT.
It's a 50-billion-parameter large language model for finance.
Here's how traditional finance is quickly getting disrupted:

Here's how traditional finance is quickly getting disrupted:
1/ BloombergGPT's training
BloombergGPT is trained on press releases, news articles and filings.
β’ Half domain-specific text, half general-purpose text
β’ 363 billion token dataset from Bloomberg's archive
β’ 345 billion token public dataset
Now let's explore some use cases.

2/ Use case: Streamlined research
BloombergGPT helps make interactions with financial data more natural.
Current data retrieval is done using Bloomberg Query Language (BQL).
This is a powerful but complex tool.
BloombergGPT can transform natural language queries into BQL.

3/ Use case: News headline suggestion
BloombergGPT is trained on lots of news articles.
This can assist journalists in their day-to-day work.
β’ Help with the editing process
β’ Suggest initial headlines from the text
β’ Write short headlines for newsletter sections

4/ Use case: Financial question answering
You can query BloombergGPT for relevant financial knowledge.
For example, it performs well at identifying the CEO of a company.
Other models are unable to do this and in some cases completely fail.

The best partβit democratises access to understanding, regardless of ability.
I'm excited about the future of training domain-specific models.
Finance is just the first step.
