Listen Later

In a world where artificial intelligence dominates headlines, few fund managers have harnessed it as boldly as Armina Rosenberg.

For those who don't know her, "Arms" made a name for herself at Grok Ventures, the family office of Mike Cannon-Brookes.

Now, she's paving a new path at AI-backed Minotaur Capital, alongside Perpetual alumnus Thomas Rice.

The duo have developed Taurient, a software system that uses large language models for everything from idea generation to portfolio construction.

In this episode of The Rules of Investing, Arms outlines how you can use AI to level up your own investment strategy, as well as a few stock ideas to get you started.
