Introducing BloombergGPT, Bloomberg's 50-billion parameter large language model, purpose-built from scratch for finance

NEW YORK – Bloomberg today released a research paper detailing the development of BloombergGPTTM, a new large-scale generative artificial intelligence (AI) model. This large language model (LLM) has been specifically trained on a wide range of financial data to support a diverse set of natural language processing (NLP) tasks within the financial industry. Recent advances in Artificial Intelligence (AI) based on LLMs have already demonstrated exciting new applications for many domains. BloombergGPT represents the first step in the development and application of this new technology for the financial industry. This model will assist Bloomberg in improving existing financial NLP tasks, such as sentiment analysis, named entity recognition, news classification, and question answering, among others.
