Data-Centric FinGPT: Open-source for Open Finance.

Let us DO NOT expect Wall Street to open-source LLMs nor open APIs.

We democratize financial data for large language models (LLM) at FinNLP and FinNLP Website

Why FinGPT?

1). Finance is highly dynamic. BloombergGPT retrains an LLM using a mixed dataset of finance and general data sources, which is too expensive (1.3M GPU hours, a cost of around $5M). It is costy to retrain an LLM model every month or every week, so lightweight adaptation is highly favorable in finance.

2). Democratizing Internet-scale financial data is critical, which should allow timely updates (monthly or weekly updates) using an automatic data curation pipeline. But, BloombergGPT has privileged data access and APIs.

3). The key technology is "RLHF (Reinforcement learning from human feedback)", which is missing in BloombergGPT. RLHF enables an LLM model to learn individual preferences (risk-aversion level, investing habits, personalized robo-advisor, etc.), which is the ``secret" ingradient of ChatGPT and GPT4.
