The pervasive impact of artificial intelligence (AI) on the payments and banking industry in 2023, addressing both its potential benefits and challenges. The financial services sector is experiencing a surge of interest and investment in AI applications, extending from fraud prevention and automation to analytics and advertising.

In the realm of payments, AI's significant impact is evident in combating fraud. The industry widely employs AI models to automate fraud detection and verification processes, leading to reduced fraud-related costs and improved risk management.
