The digital evolution of the financial services (FS) industry is heavily reliant on having quality information and analytics to deliver services to customers and manage operations in an efficient and risk-appropriate manner. With developments in Artificial Intelligence (AI) transforming the information processing and data analytics landscape, and opening up potential benefits, such as business process simplification, cost reduction, efficiency improvements and enhanced customer engagement, many FS firms have become early adopters of AI. Building and operationalising a trustworthy AI framework within an FS firm takes time and effort, however the benefits can be significant. While regulators around the globe encourage and support innovation in the FS sector, questions have been raised on whether AI has been used in an ethical and trustworthy way for customers and our society. In this report, we explore the principles underpinning ethical use of AI issued by regulators and governments in the Asia Pacific region, and what FS firms need to consider when developing their own'trustworthy AI framework'.

Thank you for joining us in broadening awareness of the consequences caused by the underrepresentation of women in AI. There are two important messages that we are attempting to voice through this effort. First, we are seeing a surging demand for AI talent. However, at least one talent pool that could help businesses achieve their AI ambitions has remained largely untapped--women! This brings us to the second message. Unlocking the potential of women to close the AI talent gap can also help us fix one of the greatest shortcomings of AI.

AI is approaching the next level of maturity, coming out of the hype cycle, says Gartner. Its adoption is expanding across industries beyond automation to building new-generation intelligent products and services for business growth. However, half of them acknowledge that they don't have skilled talent to make the most of AI advances. This is where experienced AI consulting firms come in to help. The market of AI consulting is vast, ranging from tech giants like IBM and Accenture to Big 4 firms and smaller-scale innovators.

Check out the on-demand sessions from the Low-Code/No-Code Summit to learn how to successfully innovate and achieve efficiency by upskilling and scaling citizen developers. A new survey from The Harris Poll commissioned by Macami AI, a robotic process automation (RPA) and artificial intelligence (AI) consulting firm, found that 72% of U.S. employees would delegate work tasks like invoice management, auditing and simple reporting to AI so they can focus on tasks that enable them to grow at work. This includes managing a project or team, moving to a new department or accepting a promotion. As this generation comes of age, their impact will be felt across the workplace, retail, technology, politics and culture. The survey also found more Gen Zs than older workers are interested in AI helping them on the job so that they can have more personal and family time -- illustrating the importance of work/life balance to this group.

NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--While the majority of organizations that use artificial intelligence (AI) are still experimenting with the technology, only 12% are using it at an AI maturity level that achieves a strong competitive advantage, according to new global research from Accenture (NYSE: ACN).

These capabilities include the technology -- data, AI, cloud -- as well as organizational strategy, Responsible AI, C-suite sponsorship, talent and culture. The research puts the median AI maturity of organizations at a moderate score of 36, revealing most companies have significant opportunities to generate greater value with AI.
