Upstart Terminates No-Action Letter

As a nonfinance noncomputer person this is how I interpret it

The good

  • upstart is making rapid changes to it algorithm to adjust to changing macroeconomic conditions
  • ai/ml models are doing what they are suppose to and reacting (“learning” and adapting) to additional new inputs or variables

The bad

  • they are open to litigation from the gov
  • could be an admission that the ai/ml models weren’t doing a great job in the current market environment and needed to be changed rapidly

Ultimately

  • only time will tell
