  Redefining onboarding in banking with generative AI

  Generative AI has burst onto the scene, unleashing both possibilities and threats for organisations everywhere and raising questions that range from the metaphysical (what does it mean to be human?) to the tactical (where and how should I use AI to create value and what are the risks?).

  The future of onboarding lies in embracing the power of generative AI. AI-powered onboarding offers several benefits including speed and accuracy; however, it can also address issues such as reducing false positives in anti-money laundering processes.

  In this session, IDVerse will provide insights into why financial institutions need to embrace multi-tenant serverless technology solutions, and how this technology can provide the security and resilience to be able to scale with the banks needs within seconds.
