Do you want paperclips? Because this is how you get paperclips!
Eliminate all agents, all sources of change, all complexity - anything that could introduce unpredictability, and it suddenly becomes far easier to predict the future, no?
So instead of next token prediction its next event prediction. At some point this just loops around and we're back to teaching models to predict the next token in the sequence.
Note the 'hypothetical profit' part , I know of several groups looking for opportunities to skim off LLM traders, leveraging its limited sensitivity, expressiveness, and the loss of tail data.
Predictive AI is problematic no matter what tool you use. Great at demoware that doesn't deliver.
I am sure there are use cases, but it would be augmentation, not a reliable approach by itself.
