How BMO’s AI and analytics expertise is growing the good – in business and in life
With the emergence of ChatGPT, the world has been abuzz about artificial intelligence (AI), data and analytics – and BMO is at the forefront of these advancements. Through innovative partnerships and sponsorships, BMO is demonstrating how AI and analytics is the way of the future.
Using AI, responsibly
BMO’s digital first model uses speed and scale to drive progress for our customers, unlock the power of our people and deliver loyalty, growth and efficiency. This includes the use of AI with a focus on application-centric innovation, like the use of natural language models, cashflow forecasting and chatbots to drive real business outcomes. These powerful tools help employees perform their roles with greater speed, scale and precision, and provide customers with insights that power real financial progress.
Equally important to what is delivered, is how it is delivered. BMO takes a responsible approach to AI – one that includes the guardrails the public, partners and regulators expect from a financial institution.
Fuelling innovation
A strong AI ecosystem helps build strong businesses. BMO supports businesses across North America with the capital they need to grow, drive innovation, and create jobs – and we’re also delivering on our Purpose to Boldly Grow the Good in business and life. We sponsor, partner with and provide subject matter expertise for organizations and tech accelerators across North America, including:
