In this episode of Financial Modeler’s Corner, host Paul Barnhurst is joined by Giles Male and Ian Schnoor, alongside guests Michael Jarman and Diarmuid Early, to unpack one of the biggest questions facing finance professionals today: can AI really outperform world-class financial modelers, and what does that mean for the future of the profession?

Questioning every output that looks correct.
The future isn't about replacing expert judgement.
It's about combining AI speed with human experience.
