What if groundbreaking technology didn’t require a multi-million-dollar investment? DeepSeek, a rising Chinese startup, is showing us it could be possible. Within just a year of its inception, the company’s AI model, R1, is already sparking global interest by delivering performance comparable to industry leaders like ChatGPT, but at a fraction of the cost. According to DeepSeek, R1 was trained for under $6 million, an incredible feat compared to the hundreds of millions spent by tech giants like OpenAI and Google. If training costs are validated, this would represent a major breakthrough in reducing costs, energy consumption, and environmental impact in the AI sector. 👉 Curious about how these developments could shape the future of AI?

📬 Letter from the CTO 2024 The end of the year is the perfect time for reflection and building traditions. We're excited to continue ours by sharing our annual "Letter from the CTO", which highlights the incredible growth and achievements of Axyon AI's Tech Team. After laying strong foundations in the past years, 2024 has been about scaling new heights. It's been a year of transformation, evolution, and delivering even greater value to our clients and partners. Here's a sneak peek at some of the key highlights made possible by the passion and commitment of our entire Tech Team: 🔎 Sharper Predictions: improved ML Model Development pipeline for enhancing accuracy and robustness, driving stronger predictive performance (therefore, alpha), while automation tools streamlined workflows, reduced errors and improved efficiency. 🦾 Streamlined Data for Better Insights: data centralisation and cleaning from multiple sources, ensuring all systems rely on accurate, reliable information. This reduces development complexity and provides a scalable paradigm for the incremental integration of additional data sources. ⚙️ Improved System Reliability and Speed: meta-project transforming IRIS production software into a fleet of Docker-containerised services running independently and seemingly communicating together. This allows faster updates, smoother operations, and more consistent system performance. 🏆 Reliable and Scalable ML: implementing an advanced ML model serving system for higher predictive accuracy capable of deploying heterogeneous ensembles, enabling better predictive performance and ensuring scalable and versioned deployments. These milestones underscore our relentless drive to advance the application of AI/ML in finance. We're excited to channel these innovations into creating even more effective solutions in 2025.  Curious to learn more?  📄 Read the full letter: https://lnkd.in/dvjyrzzk

👩💻 Last week at the British Machine Vision Conference #BMVC2024 in Glasgow, Monica Millunzi presented the latest research article: "May the Forgetting Be with You: Alternate Replay for Learning with Noisy Labels". In collaboration with Lorenzo Bonicelli, Angelo Porrello, Jacopo Credi, Simone Calderara, and Petter Kolm, this research dives into a key challenge in artificial intelligence: enabling systems to learn incrementally in streaming data environments, even when faced with noisy and unreliable data.  The article introduces Alternate Experience Replay (AER), a novel technique to boost #AI model performance by intentionally forgetting certain information while maintaining high-quality data for replay. Congratulations to Monica and the entire team for this achievement and for advancing the boundaries of AI #research. 👏👏 We look forward to seeing how this work will drive innovation in continual learning.

📌 Celebrating 8 Incredible Years at Axyon AI  From our start-up beginning to becoming a trusted fintech name in AI-driven solutions for alpha generation and investment management, we couldn’t be prouder of our journey. ✨ We sincerely thank our amazing team, clients, partners and dedicated investors. 🤝 Your trust and support have been instrumental in our success and achievements. 🚀 We’re excited to continue embracing new challenges, pushing boundaries, and redefining what’s possible with predictive AI solutions for the financial sector. Here’s to the next chapters of innovation, dedication and success! 🥂

🙌 Team Building - Uncovering Team Spirit on the Padel Courts Every #teambuilding activity brings the "challenge" of finding something that excites our diverse team. At our last event, we could not only find one but also confirm that no matter the activity we organise, a shared trait always comes to the surface: we're all competitive - especially on the padel courts! 🎾 Our friendly (yet intense!) padel tournament pushed our doubles teams to the max and reminded us of the multi-talented, driven group we've built in the past 8 years. It was a day filled with energy, connection, and serious sportsmanship. Big cheers to all the athletes involved and a special shout-out to our "Olympic medalists" who gave it their all! 🏅 Well done, team! 👏👏

🟢 AI-driven Investment Portfolio Outperforms by over 3 pp Last August, we continued our experiment with Milano Finanza by sharing our 3-month predictions on the top 20 stocks of the Eurostoxx50 index. Fast-forward three months, and the results speak for themselves. Our AI-powered selection delivered a weighted average return of 9.3%, outperforming the benchmark by over 3 percentage points (which saw a 6.2% increase).
