As artificial intelligence (AI) technology becomes increasingly integrated into the financial industry, there is a notable rise in the market demand for professionals who possess both financial expertise and technical skills. This article explores the significance of developing financial professionals in the context of the AI era, the challenges encountered, and strategies for nurturing interdisciplinary talent in finance, particularly in the realms of financial big data and machine learning. It examines the current obstacles in financial education, such as outdated teaching materials and insufficient practical training, and proposes solutions including the modernization of course content, enhancement of practical instruction, and promotion of collaboration between educational institutions and enterprises. The goal is to prepare financial professionals who can effectively address the challenges of the artificial intelligence era. The research indicates that the establishment and maintenance of financial technology laboratories, along with the implementation of innovative teaching methodologies, are essential for cultivating interdisciplinary talents capable of adapting to the evolving needs of the financial sector.
