Can Gemini 1.5 Pro Beat Our Best Stock Trade? - Ep. 13 with Jesse Beyroutey

I made the greatest trade of my life with Jesse Beyroutey in 2019. We bought Nvidia shares when they were trading at $33. They’re worth nearly $800 today.
I sat down with Jesse to top that trade in 90 minutes using Gemini Pro 1.5’s incredible 1 million token context window-and make a $1,000 trade live on the show.
Jesse is a managing partner at IA Ventures, a $600 million venture fund with seed investments in companies like Wise and Digital Ocean. He’s also a very close friend and one of the smartest people I know.
We unpack our investment thesis for our Nvidia trade and leverage the power of Gemini Pro 1.5 and ChatGPT to orchestrate what we hope will be the best trade of our lives. We put our money where our mouth is and make a $1,000 trade while the cameras are still rolling.
There’s a plot twist at the end of this episode-so stick around to see the epilogue Jesse and I recorded just days after we made our investment.
We get into:
- How Jesse leverages LLMs to get nuanced answers to his questions
- Ways to find patterns in large swaths of data using Gemini Pro 1.5
- Gemini Pro 1.5 and ChatGPT going head-to-head
- How Gemini Pro 1.5 can be used to understand the stock market
- Why it’s important to consistently refine your search queries
- What Jesse thinks are the new big opportunities enabled by LLMs
This is not investment advice, but it’s a must-watch for anyone who wants to leverage the power of AI to make smarter financial decisions.

incredible episode - more Jesse on the pod!

[@asfgas]

I think the 1hr(ish) limit really hurt you on this one. It feels like you only just got a hand of how it was working. Probably due to no previous experience. You should do a follow up episode (full 1hr again) building on this

Oh my what a day today is with this now live

[@edism]

AMAZING SHOW!!! Thank you!

[@varunfrombeing]

i am building a super personal chatgpt (to help one become the best version of oneself ) and i've struck gold with this series on 'how do you use chatgpt'. can't thank you enough for coming up with this, dan .. (hopefully, we can have a chat like this some day)

is this the episode of beavis & butthead go to the stock exchange? Too bad, it starts out hopefully informative and then turns into satire....
