Integrating AI and machine learning into anti-money laundering (AML) and combating the financing of terrorism (CFT) systems has become imperative for financial institutions (FIs) to safeguard their operations, customers and reputation effectively. Sophisticated financial crimes require advanced solutions to detect and prevent fraud. Money laundering, for example, is a financial
Many popular products from brightly colored candies and cereals to neon pickles to vibrant drinks get their eye-catching appeal from synthetic food dyes. But beneath their dazzling hues lies a complex, controversial web of science, regulation and risk. So, let’s explore the history of synthetic food dyes and uncover potential
Digital twins are revolutionizing manufacturing by providing real-time, virtual representations of physical assets. The ability to create and refine digital replicas using live sensor data is optimizing efficiency, reducing downtime and unlocking new levels of innovation. While many organizations are still operating with “digital shadows” – historical data models that
Navigating the interpretability paradox of autonomous AI: Can we maintain trust and transparency without sacrificing performance? AI has rapidly evolved from simple, rule-based systems into sophisticated autonomous agents capable of making decisions without direct human oversight. These advanced systems, known as "agentic AI," go beyond basic automation to independently sense
