Machine learning

The insurer will continue to improve its machine learning technology as it adapts and learns from customer inquiries.

SVP Jerry Gupta notes the emerging technology has increasingly been used in distribution and claims straight-through processing.

CLARA analytics will offer carriers AI and predictive analytics tools that help injured employees return to work quickly.

Artificial intelligence, intelligent apps, immersive-experience devices among Gartner’s technologies to watch.

Emerging AI technologies will allow insurers to make more nuanced, on-demand decisions and expand their product portfolio.

Man Group’s embrace of artificial intelligence puts it at the forefront of a seismic change that is reshaping global finance, explains Nick Granger.

Insurer’s personal insurance unit is looking to develop lasting relationships with startups in big data, AI and more.

Only about 20% of organizations have incorporated AI into some processes today, and five percent have extensively incorporated the technology.

Organizations see AI as a way to reduce the time employees spend on routine and administrative tasks, enabling them to deliver more value, says Capgemini study.

For companies serious about cutting edge data science functions, this role is key.

Japanese insurer expands its partnership with Cambridge Mobile Telematics, previously launching a program for personal auto last year.

Insurer has partnered with Founders Factory, a London-based accelerator, to develop five health startups each year.

The new system is powered by "AVA," a smart assistant leveraging telematics data to replicate accident scenes in seconds.

But most firms are focused on just having an artificial intelligence capability rather than one that adds real value, Gartner says.

Deep learning applications may put insurers on the forefront of technology.

Insurtech Tractable is among a growing group of companies using AI to inspect damage faster than human eyes can.

New capability helps customers, including insurance companies, minimize disruptions like server outages by predicting problems before they occur.

With its EMAP platform, the company says it's more agile and better able to explore new ways to interacts with clients.

More than 100 scientists from various sub-fields of AI research will work to create a single system that can tackle a wide-range of tasks, company says.

The most difficult to acquire talent this summer are IT pros with experience in artificial intelligence and the Internet of Things, says CompTIA.
