'Unfortunately, this is reminiscent of the situation in February 2020,' Jensen stated, comparing the current development of AI to the initial stages of the COVID-19 pandemic. 'Sadly, historical experience shows that we might not take any action until AI starts causing fatalities. But we will face this situation. It will happen. It would be much better if we could start addressing it before that.' (Bloomberg)

  • OpenAI Launches ChatGPT for Investment Banking

    On September 11, OpenAI officially extended its artificial intelligence reach into the core business of Wall Street. On September 10, OpenAI launched a new product specifically tailored for investment bankers and equity researchers—'ChatGPT for Financial Services.' This product was developed in deep collaboration with Morgan Stanley and Evercore, aiming to create a one-stop workflow covering 'data research, financial modeling, and client materials preparation,' sparking discussions in the market about whether junior financial researchers will be replaced. The product is equipped with the latest GPT-6 Astra model and directly integrates high-quality financial datasets from top institutions such as PitchBook, Daloopa, LSEG, and Crunchbase. Users can access data without cumbersome interface configurations and benefit from precise sourcing highlights, avoiding the 'data hallucination' often associated with generative AI. The system supports embedding company-specific Excel, Word, and PowerPoint style guides, can automatically complete complex income statement standardization and valuation analysis, and instantly generate research reports and pitch materials that fully comply with institutional formatting requirements. Although OpenAI officially positions it as a productivity tool to enhance industry efficiency (similar to Excel in its early days), many industry insiders point out that the workload of junior analysts involving basic data extraction, model building, and PowerPoint creation will face significant compression, potentially leading to a profound restructuring of the entry-level job landscape in the industry.

  • IEA: Global Oil Supply-Demand Gap Larger Than Previously Expected This Year

    On September 11, the International Energy Agency (IEA) reported in its monthly report that the global oil supply-demand gap this year will be larger than previously anticipated, due to a lack of progress in ending the Iran conflict, which delays the normalization of oil flows from the Middle East until 2027, leading to soaring fuel prices. The IEA projects that global oil demand will decrease by 2.5 million barrels per day in 2026 (previously forecasted as a decrease of 1.6 million barrels per day); it is expected that global oil supply will be 1.74 million barrels per day lower than demand in 2026 (previously forecasted as 1.27 million barrels per day lower). So far, inventories have played a crucial role in balancing the market. With buffers diminishing and the global refining system stretched to its limits, the need to resolve the Middle East conflict and the ongoing Russia-Ukraine war, now in its fifth year, is greater than ever to avoid further tightening of the market.
