About the event
For years, "learn to code" was the best advice for aspiring traders. But as AI becomes capable of writing complex Python scripts and SQL queries, the value of pure syntax knowledge is diminishing. The future belongs not to those who can write the code, but to those who can architect the system.
This webinar explores the shifting skill landscape in the quantitative finance industry. We will discuss why deep domain knowledge, mathematical intuition, and system design are becoming more valuable than syntax memorization. Learn how to leverage AI as a force multiplier for your career rather than viewing it as a replacement.
