Everyone is talking about artificial intelligence (AI). In the business world, the scientific community and society alike, AI is the subject of widespread and heated debate. For companies in the insurance industry, it can be hard to stay on top of the latest developments.

Yet AI offers valuable opportunities and increases the ability of companies to compete.

We often hear people talk about “no-brainers”. Trying to explain this concept to mean an “obvious statement” or something that is a “breeze” doesn’t quite work. A no-brainer is something that is clear-cut. A decision that does not require much thought. Everything speaks for it – or against it. For all the complexity of its implementation, the use of AI applications in banks is a no-brainer. This is because financial institutions have everything that AI applications need: the data, the tasks and the business cases. Nevertheless, as studies show, our instinct tells us to proceed with caution.
