Build the world’s smartest AI trader, then hand it over for free? That’s either mad genius or a masterclass in leadership.
Singapore, 2025 — A hush fell over the Marina Bay Sands ballroom as Joseph Plazo stepped under the crystal chandeliers.
Holding up a house-key-sized flash drive, he declared, “This made billions. It’s yours now.”
Gasps. Phones dropped. The world’s most accurate AI trader was now public domain.
At the center of this seismic shift: Joseph Plazo, a man dismantling the monopoly on market intelligence.
## The Genius Behind the Code
Now 41, Plazo carries the demeanor of a poet, not a profiteer.
He’s both charismatic and cryptic—more monk than mogul.
When asked how his AI firm cracked the markets, he doesn’t cite algorithms. He recounts loss.
“He was a smart man,” Plazo says quietly. “But the market doesn’t care. It punishes emotion.”
That was when young Joseph vowed to build a system smarter than fear.
## System 72: A Machine That Thinks in Emotion
What emerged 12 years later was System 72—an AI that reads markets the way humans read faces.
Forget moving averages. This AI reads collective anxiety.
From breaking news to atmospheric anomalies, System 72 digests it all in seconds.
“It’s instinct. But upgraded,” he says.
Within months, $25 million turned into $3.8 billion.
It dodged the 2024 oil crash. It rode the tech micro-rally after Taiwan’s semiconductor scare.
## The Big Release: Why He Gave It Away
And then, stunning the world, he gave it away—to the classrooms of Asia.
From Tsinghua to NUS to the University of Tokyo, students got access to the magic.
His condition? Improve it. Teach it. Share it.
What started as a hedge fund weapon became a global tool for innovation.
## Critics, Cynics, and Controlled Chaos
Wall Street predictably bristled.
“Is this brilliance—or a publicity stunt?” skeptics asked.
Plazo shrugs. “If generosity looks like insanity to you, maybe you’ve forgotten how progress works.”
Still, key infrastructure—execution engines, capital controls—remains in his vault.
“I gave away the brain,” he says. “You still have to read more build the body.”
## Spreading the Mindset: The God Algorithm Tour
Since then, he’s traveled the globe on what’s been dubbed the God Algorithm World Tour.
He teaches. He challenges. He demystifies.
“This isn’t just tech,” says NUS professor Mei Lin. “It’s a mindset revolution.”
## His True Legacy
Why let go of the tool that conquered the markets?
Plazo doesn’t believe in golden geese—only in golden generations.
“Financial literacy should be universal,” he insists.
Deep down, this may be less about code and more about closure.
## The Final Word
The future’s uncertain—but one thing is clear.
Chaos may come. So might evolution.
What he gave the world wasn’t just genius—but permission.
As we left the Marina Bay ballroom, he looked over the skyline.
“They say wealth is control,” he said. “But true wealth… is what you can give away.”
And with that, the man who outsmarted markets walked offstage—not with a roar, but with a whisper.
