Generative Artificial Intelligence for Banking
One of the AI solutions with the greatest benefits for banking is generative AI. As the name suggests, it involves the use of advanced models (such as Large Language Models) that create new content, text, analysis, code, or recommendations based on financial and customer data.
In banking, it is used to automate knowledge, interaction, and documentation while maintaining regulatory compliance. Examples of platforms used in the sector include ChatGPT-type models, Microsoft enterprise solutions with Azure AI, and platforms like IBM Watson.
Main Use Cases

Example: AI initiatives at BBVA for internal assistants.
AI allows for the implementation of chatbots and virtual assistants that respond to inquiries immediately, personally, and 24/7. This reduces wait times, improves customer satisfaction, and frees up staff to handle more complex cases.
Yes. Machine learning algorithms analyze transaction patterns in real time, detecting suspicious activity before it becomes a problem. Furthermore, these systems continuously adapt to new fraud tactics, protecting both the institution and its customers.
AI-based predictive analytics tools allow for the evaluation of large volumes of data and non-traditional variables, providing more accurate risk assessments. This facilitates loan approvals, portfolio management, and more informed decisions, reducing losses and improving operational efficiency.
