Bloomberg is a global leader in business and financial information, delivering trusted data, news, and insights that bring transparency, efficiency, and fairness to markets. The Bloomberg Terminal connects influential communities across the global financial ecosystem via reliable technology that enables our customers to make informed decisions and foster collaboration.
For over a decade, Bloomberg has been a trailblazer in financial applications of AI, machine learning, and natural language processing (NLP). The Artificial Intelligence group is responsible for driving adoption of these technologies at Bloomberg, with over 250 research engineers working collaboratively to provide clients with the best-in-class news, research, market data, and analytics.
The AI group contributes to Bloomberg's flagship products such as news, research, pricing, communications platforms, search and discovery tools. We work on a variety of AI subfields, including NLP, information retrieval, time series analysis, and recommender systems. Textual data is particularly key to understanding how events in the world impact our clients. Whether it's analyzing social media sentiment over thousands of tweets per second, automatically extracting key indicators from press releases and filings, or helping clients derive intelligence from their internal communications by identifying entities and intents, we've used NLP to help Bloomberg maintain its edge as the market leader in financial data and communications.
The advent of large language models (LLMs) presents new opportunities for expanding our NLP capabilities in our products.
