This week we speak to Heidi Allan to understand how AI will help us make better financial decisions. 

Heidi leads us through how AI will impact each of the four pillars of financial wellbeing - knowledge, confidence, capability and resilience. We also cover: 

- How AI can help deliver personalised financial education 
- Using AI to upskill us ahead of making key financial decisions 
- The opportunity for ‘levelling up’ our capabilities to make informed financial decisions
- The role of employers in providing access to reputable AI-enabled financial tools.

S1 Ep. 4 How AI will help us make better financial decisions

This week on Beyond Curious with LCP, hosts Jessica Clark and Mary Spencer speak to Zoe Burdo on the interaction between AI and behavioural biases. We consider how AI can be used to help with decision-making and some key pitfalls to look out for.  

Zoe is an LCP expert on managing behavioural bias and groupthink in order to improve business decision making.

S1 Ep. 5 Does AI mitigate or magnify behavioural bias?

This week on Beyond Curious with LCP, hosts Jessica Clark and Laura Amin speak to Sir Steve Webb on how AI will transform government, policy-making and regulation. 

Steve is a Partner at LCP and a former Pensions Minister and has a great ‘inside knowledge’ of how policy-making is done in practice in the halls of Westminster.  He has also successfully championed the use of data-driven reform, including a campaign which has helped government correct an underpayment of women’s state pensions worth over £1 billion.

S1 Ep. 7 AI in government, politics and regulation

This week we speak to Ken Willis on the huge subject of climate change to understand how AI can help.
We cover: 
- Why we need to move from AI helping with “clever modelling” to AI supporting changes in behaviour
- How AI can help us better understand the issues surrounding climate change, including the cost of doing nothing (or not doing enough) – supporting better decision-making
- Why government policy is key to changing behaviour and how it could be used in a non-intrusive way
- The importance of working together globally and the dangers of an AI arms race.

S1 Ep. 8 A race against time? AI and climate change

This week we take a deep dive into AI with expert Christopher Penn, debunking some myths and looking at some exciting use cases in business and day-to-day life.
Christopher is co-founder and Chief Data Scientist of Trust Insights and a recognised expert in the field of data science and machine learning.
We discuss:
- The evolution of AI, machine learning and large language models
- Jargon-busting, including why Open AI is actually closed…
- Regulation: why the outcome, not the model, will need to be regulated in the future
- How the explosion of generative AI is driving a groundswell of further innovation
- Christopher’s six key AI use cases
- How AI can help us to be the best version of ourselves.

S1 Ep. 9 AI - an expert view with Christopher Penn

This week we’re delighted to be joined by Arezu Moghadam, Global Head of Data Science at JPMorgan Asset Management.  We pick Arezu’s brains on the interaction of AI and investment management – Arezu sets out a strong case on why the possibilities are endless!
We cover:
- How AI can enhance investment decisions across the three strands of decision-making: data gathering, analysis and interpretation.
- Why this is not just applicable to quantitative investors, but that AI can supercharge a fundamental investment process
- The impact on overall market dynamics: despite the huge increases in data availability and our ability to analyse it, we remain a long way off from “perfect information” and a world where active management becomes redundant
- Quantamental investing – what is it and why is it attractive
- Why the combination of AI and human expertise makes for the strongest approach.

S1 Ep. 10 How can AI improve investment outcomes?

This week we’re delighted to be joined by Alex Waite, a Partner at LCP who advises employers on pensions strategy and also leads LCP’s pensions member communications team. Alex’s journey with AI dates back over twenty years! 

We discuss with Alex how AI can be harnessed to enhance individuals’ retirement journeys and what trustees, providers and advisers should do to realise this potential.

S1 Ep. 11 How can AI support better retirement journeys?

This week we’re delighted to be joined by Peter Church, TMT Counsel at Linklaters with over 20 years’ experience advising clients on the challenges raised by new technology.
