AI in Finance, Bridging Hype to Reality w/ Vasagi Kothandapani

Can AI make you rich? Or, more to the point, can AI make investment banks, hedge funds, and financial services companies even richer?

Not so fast...

Vasagi Kothandapani is an expert in helping financial services companies train, develop, and integrate AI. She's the Senior Vice President of AI Training at RWS, a tech-enabled content and language organization.  And she stops by the pod to help separate the hype from the reality of AI in fintech... what are the exciting use cases, and what are the sober realities that need to be overcome?

You can think of this as essentially a "case study" for the challenges that all businesses face when trying to incorporate AI.  Sounds easy but the details get tricky in a blink.

So even if you're not in finance, anyone who does any kind of work can relate to much of these larger themes and tradeoffs.
