unfortunately humans suck at following human or superhuman (religious) ethics, therefore AIs will be at least as bad!!! AGIs made with money of politicians will be hypocrites like politicians are...?

This week we interview a leader at Facebook. Jason Sundram is the lead of World.ai at Facebook, which is one of their efforts to work with public data around roads and population and other projects of that kind. But Sundram is also highly involved in the Boston office here, where Facebook will soon have around 650 employees. Many of them focus on data science and artificial intelligence. Last time we talked about personalization in AI with Hussein Mehanna, who was Director of Engineering at Facebook at the time. This time, we'll talk about two topics that all established sectors need to be focusing on:  How does one build ML and data science teams? How does one pick an AI project?  For business leaders who are considering hiring data science talent or thinking about how to start with AI in terms of making a difference in their bottom line, this should be a useful episode.

Banks have several challenges to AI adoption. One of them is their legacy IT and data infrastructures which aren’t built or organized for machine learning. Nishant Chandra, PhD, Senior Director of Data Products at Visa, outlines how banks can transition their legacy systems to systems ready for AI. Chandra discusses the importance of leadership teams in cultivating a company culture necessary for adopting AI with any success, and he gives examples of times when he’s seen old systems hold a company back from adopting AI and when he’s seen leadership do the same. Discover how banks can overcome some of the pitfalls to AI adoption in this episode of the AI in Banking Podcast.

How Banking Leaders Can Overcome the Challenges to AI Adoption - With Nishant Chandra

According to Sergey Gribov, Partner at Flint Capital, “banks are the ultimate commodity.” Fintech startups can offer banking services with leaner teams and better customer experiences using artificial intelligence. But banks need to differentiate themselves somehow from not just fintech companies, but other banks, especially as they decide which banking functions they want to focus on in the coming decade. Banks will almost certainly become leaner operations to stay in business, and they’ll need to make strategic decisions that direct their future.&nbsp; In this episode of the AI in Banking podcast, Gribov offers a frank picture of the banking landscape in the coming years and how banks will need to respond to it.

While AI is certainly finding its footing in finance, we still find most of our subscribers are in a phase where they're trying to catch up in terms of data and data infrastructure and figure out where there's real traction with AI in finance: in banking, investing, or insurance. In this episode, we explore AI use-cases in a number of these areas of the financial industry. We interview Carlos Pazos and&nbsp;Anwar Ghauche at Spark Cognition about how to maximize a smaller data science team at a financial institution, how AI and alternative data is being used for quantamental investing, and how AI is automating some financing and underwriting processes.

This week, we speak with Gunnar Carlsson, co-founder of Ayasdi, one of the better-known anti-money laundering AI vendors and one of the highest ranking in our AI in Banking Vendor Landscape report. Carlson pioneered his own branch of mathematics that eventually became the backbone of Ayasdi's AI software. We speak to Carlson about methods of calibrating and understanding risk at banks, new sources of data and algorithmic approaches (and what they mean for banks), and the difference between supervised and unsupervised learning. Both machine learning techniques can be used to solve business problems in unique ways. Lastly, we discuss with Carlson something of critical importance in risk-related functions: knowing your customer.

This week, we speak with Adam Hunt, CTO of RiskIQ, about how cybersecurity is shifting in the world of banking and financial services and why AI will be necessary to handle those changes. Fraud and cybersecurity startups selling to banks have raised more than vendors for any other business function, and we talk about why AI is such a good fit for cybersecurity in banking. Hunt also discusses how banks can secure AI talent in banking. Working on cybersecurity at a bank may not be as flashy as working on self-driving cars or working for Amazon, but there are things banks can do to attract AI talent they'll need to build and maintain cybersecurity systems.
