📍 Hot take: “If you have generative AI tools that are controlling the product discovery and recommendation, you lose all the data associated with that. I think there's definitely not a lot of dialogue about what gen AI means for banking in terms of product discovery.” ~ Tiffani Montez

📍 Hot take: “Is anybody tracking how much money they have on their Starbucks card as like an asset?” ~ Pam Kaur

📍 Hot take: “So know your customer, know your business. And now we're looking at KYA, Know Your Agent …  We are probably severely behind when it comes to authentication and the security and privacy of it all.” ~ Julie Muhn
