Artificial intelligence can solve complex problems and identify patterns that humans might miss. But can it actually predict which investments will outperform?

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.
