Artificial Intelligence (AI), familiarity breeds content

We employ some of the brightest and best in professional services, but too much of their time and talent is taken up in research tasks that fail to inspire them. Take our Financial Services Risk and Regulation team – their role is to provide accurate, up-to-date advice on this crucial and increasingly complex area, but the sheer volume of information that needs to be assimilated to do that is growing exponentially. This is one area where AI comes into play – we can now use an AI powered assistant to do the first stage of information processing, using technology tools that can cope with both structured and more importantly unstructured data. That helps speed up research tasks, and frees up time to focus on the intellectual challenges of an engagement turning the gathered information into deep insights. And the best bit is that the tools get cleverer over time: thanks to the inherent machine learning capabilities, the more you use them, the more precise results will be delivered at the first pass.
