Jamie Dimon, CEO of America’s largest bank JP Morgan, has detailed how artificial intelligence (AI) is being used across the bank’s operations, saying the technology now supports hundreds of different functions.

Speaking to Bloomberg recently, Dimon said the bank is using AI in areas such as risk management, fraud detection, underwriting, negotiation, note-taking, idea generation and error reporting. “We use AI for risk, fraud, bargaining, underwriting, note taking, idea generation, error reporting, reducing errors, and, you know, there are 600 more use cases, 50, I’d put in the important category,” Jamie Dimon said.

He added that the goal is to make processes better, faster and more efficient. “It is no different than the past. And if we could do it, we could use it, do some better, faster, quicker, cheaper, higher staff and the customer, We are gonna do it. And so AI is the new front of the wonderful stuff,” he said.

Jamie Dimon: AI may lead to 4 days work future

Beyond banking, Jamie Dimon also spoke about the broader impact of AI on society. He suggested that over the long term, technology could change how people work and live.

“And I think for society, you got to remember, people talking about the negatives, you know, my guess is, I really do mean it, may be in 30 or 40 years… are going to be working four days a week, maybe three and a half days a week. You live 120, a lot of cancers have been cured, a lot of disease will be cured,” Dimon said.Recently, Dimon urged businesses and governments to start preparing for the labour disruption that artificial intelligence could bring. According to a Fortune report, Dimon said that society should not wait until job losses materialise before addressing them. “I’m not predicting [it] can be a problem. I’m simply saying now’s the time to start thinking about what you do if it does,” he cautioned. Dimon further emphasises that JPMorgan is embracing AI transformation rather than ignoring it.

The bank has already deployed a large language model used by 150,000 employees weekly, and Dimon also acknowledged that productivity gains from AI could mean the bank will employ fewer people in the next five years.
