The U.S. banks most in need of artificial intelligence experts

Judging solely by headlines and quotes from CEOs, banks are in desperate need of engineers with experience working with artificial intelligence. J.P. Morgan recently made waves by poaching AI specialists from Google, Facebook and two leading research universities in the U.S. Goldman Sachs created an equal splash by hiring away a machine learning guru from Amazon to run its AI efforts. Still, there doesn't appear to be a dramatic need for rows and rows of AI engineers at big U.S. banks. Active job postings that require a background in artificial intelligence are far from overwhelming, though some of that could be due to the apparent difficulty of finding and hiring capable AI engineers. J.P. Morgan, for example, recently hosted an open recruiting event attended by its top AI minds in an attempt to meet and potentially lure talent away from big Silicon Valley tech companies.
