A flurry of AI headlines have investors talking today. Deirdre Bosa breaks all of those down for us – and we discuss with our panel Trivariate's Adam Parker, New York Life Investment's Lauren Goodwin and JPMorgan's Jordan Jackson.

AI is trained on the sum total of human output—which means it often produces the average of averages. That's fine for passable results, but not for unique, high-quality work. In this weekend big think episode, NLW explores what he calls AI's tyranny of the average and shares five techniques to break through it: using negative style guides, forcing divergence and choice, burning down clichés, prompting self-critique, and leveraging examples that defy consensus.

Cryptocurrency trading services are offered by Bakkt Crypto Solutions, LLC (NMLS ID 1890144), which is licensed to engage in virtual currency business activity by the NYSDFS.
