The financial industry can use AI technology to improve service quality and efficiency, risk management, precision marketing, data mining and forecasting. For example, a risk assessment system based on machine learning algorithms can help financial institutions more accurately assess risks by analyzing historical customer data and market trends, thereby avoiding financial losses. And a precision marketing system based on big data and artificial intelligence can help financial institutions understand customer needs and behavioral habits more precisely, so as to provide more personalized services and products.
