About this session
AI adoption by central banks, the financial institutions they supervise, and in financial systems and infrastructure is growing, even as AI’s capabilities and the AI risk landscape is rapidly evolving.
Increasingly powerful frontier models can enhance efficiency and decision making, whilst posing cybersecurity and financial system resilience risks as they can autonomously identify and exploit software vulnerabilities, raising significant implications for critical financial infrastructure such as national payment systems and the wider financial industry.
This roundtable discusses how central banks can prepare and respond to the next and future generations of AI capabilities and risks, ensuring cybersecurity, resilience and the trusted adoption of AI. The session will highlight best practices, challenges, lessons learnt and opportunities for cross-border collaboration in implementing and scaling AI safely and securely.
