This AI research paper explores the use of artificial intelligence in banking to optimize business processes and improve customer experience. The authors identify two categories of customer-related tasks: local tasks focusing on individual customers’ current states, such as transaction forecasting; and global tasks considering overall customer behavior, like predicting successful loan repayment. To reduce costs and improve information management, the researchers compared eight state-of-the-art unsupervised methods across 11 tasks to find a one-size-fits-all solution. They found that contrastive self-supervised learning excelled at global problems, while generative techniques outperformed others at local tasks. The authors also introduced a novel approach that enriches client representations by incorporating external information from other clients, achieving up to 20% accuracy improvement over classical models.

Artificial intelligence helps banks improve customer service! Imagine having a personal assistant that can predict your transaction habits and even help you pay off loans successfully. Banks use AI for this and more. The problem is, they need separate models for each task, which costs too much money. So, researchers tried eight different ways to do things without needing human supervision. They tested these methods on 11 different tasks and found that some work better than others. One method, called contrastive self-supervised learning, does really well with big problems like predicting successful loan repayment. Another method, generative techniques, is great for smaller tasks like transaction forecasting. The researchers also came up with a new idea to make these models even better by combining information from lots of customers. This new approach works really well and can improve accuracy by as much as 20%!
