Generative AI for Financial Chatbots

Building AI agents that are able to converse like financial advisors using fact-based reasoning, real-time data, and conversational memory.
Financial AI Workshop

Practical, hands-on introduction to designing and building AI agents that can function like financial advisors, leveraging fact-based reasoning, real-time financial data, and conversational memory. 

$9 Workshop Admission Fee

During the workshop, your instructor will guide you through the thought process of architecting a generative AI using the latest breakthroughs in LLM (large language models). You will then learn how to build a simple AI agent that can generate financial insights, investment ideas, and do factual question-answering based on real-time financial data.
 

Add $5 for Workshop + Practicum

For an extra $5, you can upgrade your participation to the Workshop + Practicum tier (optional). Here's the offer:
  • $9 workshop admission included
  • $98 worth of Sectors API subscription included
  • $39 worth of Supertype Fellowship+ included (peer to peer learning group, mentorship, post-workshop implementation support)
After the workshop, all Practicum members are invited to join the Supertype Fellowship, where you can continue to build your AI agent, access real-time financial data, and collaborate with other members in the community with the free API credits provided to you.
Whether you are a hobby programmer, or looking to wet your feet in the field of data analytics, or if you're even a little curious as to what Large Language Models (i.e. GPT-4, Llama 3, etc.) can do for you, this workshop is for you.

Earn a Certificate of Completion (Practicum-only)

Follow along the last 1 hour of the workshop as a Workshop + Practicum member to earn a certificate of completion. 

We issue this certificate of completion as proof of demonstrable proficiency, and the difficulty level is suited for beginner / junior programmers. You will be asked to submit your work via a Github upload, at which point a mentor will assess and award a certificate as acknowledgement of your competency.
