The amount of data is exponentially growing. A paper by IDC, Data Age 2025, said that 16.3 zettabytes of information was generated in 2017 (one zettabyte is 1 billion terabytes), and forecasted this amount would rise to as much as 163 zettabytes in 2025. Making sense of all this data has become the next arms race, with artificial intelligence playing a pivotal role in pattern recognition and generating new insights for managers. This is certainly true when one considers the new generation of hedge funds that are using autonomous learning and neural networks to run their portfolios.
