Generative AI (GenAI) is here to stay – there’s no question about it. A recent SAS survey of 1,600 organizations found that 54% have begun implementing It, and 86% plan to invest in it within the next financial year. As organizations integrate AI into their workflows, a critical question arises:
"Generative AI (GenAI) initiatives should support broader public goals and needs," says SAS' Ensley Tan.

Ever since generative AI burst onto the scene, it has sparked a whirlwind of ethical concerns. Unlike traditional AI, which typically analyzes and makes predictions based on existing data, GenAI creates entirely new content – videos, text, audio, code and more.

Five years ago, there was no conflict in Ukraine. People went into offices for work. No one was fighting over toilet paper. Everyone’s concept of AI was loosely anchored by Hollywood films like Terminator or War Games. And, insurers enjoyed relatively stable profits, consistent inflation/interest rates, and manageable change volume.
Another promise of innovation and advancement? Not in 2025. The hype of market disruption and transformation might be the content that catches attention, but it’s not always the most accurate description of the industry. For far too long, industry experts have praised the ideas of future-forward growth and promised year-over-year
As we peer into 2025 looking for signs of what’s to come, one thing is certain – the global banking industry will continue its evolution.

There is no shortage of challenges associated with the deployment of AI: a lack of access to infrastructure, a lack of skills, and new legislation meant to enforce the responsible use of this evolving technology. But the most consequential questions facing us are innately human. Namely, ensuring human agency, safety
We made bold predictions a year ago about what 2021 would bring. We’re bold enough to do it again for 2022. The pandemic disrupted traditional ways of life in 2021. Remote learning and working became the norm for many. Telehealth took off, and IT modernization accelerated in every industry. 2021
