Sean Aylmer speaks with Slava Platkov, Senior Investment Director at Dimensional, about new research testing machine learning models across global markets. They discuss why predicting returns is so difficult, why successful forecasts don't necessarily translate into investment profits, and where AI can genuinely help investors.
