FinTech Weekly - 🛠️AI: Your Business Ally - Issue #431
AI may be divisive, but its business impact, including on SMEs, is undeniable.August 31, 2023In this issue of FinTech Weekly, we aim to analyze a critical relationship—the one between AI and businesses. In fact, it's the willingness of entrepreneurs to embrace artificial intelligence that has propelled this disruptive technology forward, despite regulatory challenges, concerns, and calls for a temporary halt in its development. One aspect that should be closely considered is AI's democratic nature: financial resources don't dictate its accessibility. As correctly pointed out in one of the fintech-related articles we'll showcase, “We know, that while business owners are idea rich, they often find themselves time, resource and specialised expertise poor”. Can concerns truly outweigh all this? If our guiding theme for this issue is the use of AI to drive business growth, discover what we actually mean by delving into the stories we've curated.
