KYC DECODED

We’ve all heard rumblings about the potential bias-related risks AI can bring when models aren't properly trained or governed with plentiful, high-quality data. But, how many of us have paused to consider flipping this paradigm? Could our own bias on the subject of AI cause us to overlook how consciously-infused AI technologies could remove dangerous biases from our KYC and AML processes?

In this thought-provoking conversation, host Alex Pillow discusses the topic with AI and ethics expert, Anna Nicolis, senior manager at Braithwate, who specializes in helping global institutions with risk and compliance challenges.

Highlights of this episode include:

• A look at what the word “bias” really means
• The root causes of bias in society and within AI technologies
• Where AI has potential to help eliminate bias in the compliance lifecycle
• The role humans and data play in governing AI models
