• Advanced Security through AI:

 AI is a wide-ranging tool that has enabled us to integrate large amounts of information, analyze data and use the analysis in decision making for improved security. The rapid socio-technical transitions have intensified the adoption of AI in the security domain.

“The breakneck development of ML-CV driven techniques in 2023 has led to great efficiency in detecting the security threats in real time and preventing situations at sensitive areas. Indian authorities are deploying this technology to prioritize responses and determine the best way to handle situations. Government officials are being proactive in providing services using AI based solutions like traffic violation detection or security threat detection. A large number of India cities are adopting premise security solutions for sensitive areas as well as smart and safe city applications that use AI to prevent violations and improve city life,” stated Anoop G Prabhu, Co-founder & C.T.O of Vehant Technologies.

• AI’s Impact on Finance:

Artificial intelligence has carved a niche for itself in the world of fintech in the year 2023, leveraging its prowess to perform multiple tasks efficiently. Using artificial intelligence, it has become possible for fintechs to provide a personalized level of financial services by providing recommendations for investments, savings, and financial planning, made possible through the analysis of customer data, and to customize financial services based on individual preferences and behaviors.

Additionally, machine learning algorithms are used in AI-driven predictive analytics to find patterns and trends in historical data and produce more precise forecasts. This has helped fintechs make better decisions about their investments, credit models, risk management, and market trends. Besides continuously learning and adapting to new fraud tactics, AI algorithms can analyze large volumes of data in real-time to detect unusual patterns and behaviors, helping identify potential fraudulent activities and enhancing the accuracy of fraud detection systems. This has greatly helped fintechs improve their portfolio performance and reduce risk. I believe that AI is here to stay and improve the scope of the fintech industry and further advance its growth in the coming years, stated, Sonal Patni, Chief Technology Officer, Niyogin Fintech Limited.

“In the SaaS space, this leap forward in Generative AI has meant a transformation in the range of functionality that SaaS products are able to offer. By integrating output generated from these AI tools, SaaS platforms are able to make content creation seamless and intuitive for their users. Analytics are also being transformed with AI, with customers being able to get direct insights rather than only raw data. As AI increasingly supplements the processing capability of the human mind, SaaS platforms are able to increase the range of data being captured and then rely on AI to process and provide insights from that data,” said, Kamalika Bhattacharya, CEO and Co-founder, QuoDeck.
