Is AI actually new in investing, or just finally getting credit for decades of quiet dominance?


In this Part 1 episode of TapHere, we sit down with Noah Solomon, CIO of Outcome Metric Asset Management, to unpack the uncomfortable truth behind active management, behavioral bias, and why over 95% of fund managers underperform their benchmarks.


We get into:


• Why “AI investing” has existed for decades (it just wasn’t called AI)

• The real reason humans underperform markets (hint: emotions, not IQ)

• How data, algorithms, and machine learning remove fear, greed, and ego from investing

• Why Canada’s investment culture lags—and what that means for returns

• How Outcome uses AI to capture upside and avoid downside


If you’ve ever wondered whether machines actually make better investors than humans… this episode will make you think twice before trusting your gut.
