Artificial-intelligence lab Anthropic is diving deeper into the financial services industry, releasing tools on Tuesday that can speed up myriad tasks for banks and insurers while CEO Dario Amodei predicted further software disruption.
Pegged to a New York event hosted by Anthropic, the startup launched 10 financially focused agents, or AI programmes that carry out tasks with limited human intervention. These include agents that can build a pitchbook, audit statements or draft credit memos, Anthropic said.
