The introduction of Two Sigma(Using News to Predict Stock Movements) AI competition at Kaggle
Can we use the content of news analytics to predict stock price performance? The ubiquity of data today enables investors at any scale to make better investment decisions. The challenge is ingesting and interpreting the data to determine which data is useful, finding the signal in this sea of information. Two Sigma is passionate about this challenge and is excited to share it with the Kaggle community.
The most exciting thing about this competition is, the Kaggle is now using the submitted model to do real time future market prediction, which is really meaningful for the verification of the possibility that AI can understand market more better than human been? Like AI understands the game of GO much better than top 1 chess player.
