Which areas require more practical research?

In certain areas, this book has hit the ceiling of research, and these are the research areas that could help move AI applications in banking:

  • Autonomous learning: AI will be replacing the works of AI engineers—given that the machine will be able to learn. Given the wealth of data nowadays, the machine will adopt its network structure itself.
  • Transparent AI: As the machine starts to make decisions, humans will demand transparency as regards the decision-making process.
  • Body of knowledge: In the case of expert knowledge, further research will look at how organizations can use AI to generate the body of knowledge. Practically, the Wikipedia form stored in BERT or any language model is not intended for human consumption or knowledge cultivation. And how do we squeeze the knowledge map to form a neural network, and vice versa?
  • Data masking: To allow data to travel...
