[00:00:00]Real artificial intelligence, on the other hand, is like Spotify recommending songs. It learns from your behavior and improves over time. It doesn't just follow rules, it predicts and adapts. In lending, that means analyzing thousands of customers' behaviors and deciding, "Hmm, people who use their mobile wallets with a certain level of frequency, velocity, and variety, or spend airtime in a certain way, usually repay well." So, a machine learning model will, one, look at the patterns that led to successful repayment, two, flag behaviors associated with defaults, and three, adjust the way it scores new applicants all on its own.
