Designing for Digital Labor in Financial Services

Most financial institutions still think of AI as a project. The real opportunity is designing digital labor that works alongside human teams - automating what slows them down and amplifying what they do best.

During this session, Vala Afshar will share insights from his new book, Autonomous: Why the Fittest Businesses Embrace AI-First Strategies and Digital Labor, and discuss what it means to design an AI-first organization.

He’ll be joined by Zennify and Altimetrik executives who will translate those principles into the realities of financial services where data silos, legacy workflows, and compliance demands make scaling AI especially difficult.
