„Julia Krauwer, artificial intelligence expert at ABN Amro,
discusses how advances in machine learning are
increasingly being applied to an array of business-to-
consumer interactions, including banking.
Like many people who were young in 1997, I had a
Tamagotchi and it meant the world to me. Whenever it
was hungry, I hurried to feed my digital pet. If it beeped
about being lonely, I'd go give it attention. My parents
thought it was a little silly to be that devoted to a toy,
but in this day and age it's almost impossible to imagine
life without interaction between man and machine. It’s a
trend that’s here to stay.”
