AI assistants will be integrated into society, creating questions around autonomy, safety, and misuse:



With Ai being mentioned when I was researching both the future of subscriptions and digital banks, I thought looking into an advanced Ai assistant would further connect this tech with financial planning. With a goal of enabling how people want to live their individual lives, an Ai assistant would be catered to do just that.

If this article is correct in saying that Ai assistants will influence consumers’ path of personal development, wouldn’t knowing the individual’s financial status be important in determining the advice it gives? Would you trust an Ai assistant with that information if it was just an app you downloaded? Wouldn’t the bank be the most secure place for customers to feel assured their information isn’t going anywhere?

With the potential data and influence that Ai assistants could have, a good question comes up for how autonomous these assistants should be. Will a person be able to tell if what it computes is misaligned with them or will they follow the information blindly? What can be implemented to prevent customers possibly being misled?

I further researched the ethical implication of Ai, specifically in banking, to see how the current market has already integrated the technology into their businesses.
