• “AI is the theory and development of computer systems able to perform tasks that traditionally have required human intelligence.
• AI is a broad field, of which ‘machine learning’ is a sub-category”

Smarter AlgorithmsParallel and Distributing Computing Frameworks Deep Learning Frameworks
1. Our labeled datasets were thousands of times too small.2. Our computers were millions of times too slow.3. We initialized the weights in a stupid way.4. We used the wrong type of non-linearity.- Geoff Hinton

Claim:
• Machine learning is better for fraud detection, looking for arbitrage opportunities and trade execution
Caution:
• Beware of imbalanced class problems
• A model that gives 99% accuracy may still not be good enough
1. Machine learning is not a generic solution to all problems
18
Claim:
• Our models work on datasets we have tested on
Caution:
• Do we have enough data?
• How do we handle bias in datasets?
• Beware of overfitting
• Historical Analysis is not Prediction
2. A prototype model is not your production model

AI and Machine Learning in Production

Kristy Roth from HSBC:“It’s been somewhat easy - in a funny way - to get going using sample data, [but] then you hit the real problems,” Roth said.“I think our early track record on PoCs or pilots hides a little bit the underlying issues.
Matt Davey from Societe Generale:“We’ve done quite a bit of work with RPA recently and I have to say we’ve been a bit disillusioned with that experience,”“the PoC is the easy bit: it’s how you get that into production and shift the balance”

Claim:• It works. We don’t know how!Caution:• It’s still not a proven science• Interpretability or “auditability” of
models is important• Transparency in codebase is paramount
with the proliferation of opensource tools
• Skilled data scientists who are knowledgeable about algorithms and their appropriate usage are key to successful adoption
3. We are just getting started!
21
Claim:
• Machine Learning models are more accurate than traditional models
Caution:
• Is accuracy the right metric?
• How do we evaluate the model? RMS or R2
• How does the model behave in different regimes?
4. Choose the right metrics for evaluation
22
Claim:• Machine Learning and AI will replace
humans in most applicationsCaution:• Beware of the hype!• Just because it worked some times
doesn’t mean that the organization can be on autopilot
• Will we have true AI or Augmented Intelligence?
• Model risk and robust risk management is paramount to the success of the organization.
• We are just getting started!
5. Are we there yet?
