Summary

The narrative surrounding artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) is shifting from technical discussions to societal implications. Large language models, a type of AI that can mimic human intelligence, are being used in generative AI chatbots like ChatGPT and Bard. These LLMs analyze vast amounts of data to generate human-like content in response to user prompts. The possibilities for this technology at the user level are endless, ranging from writing prompts to coding help, while enterprise applications continue to explode across various industries. AI is already playing a pivotal role in the financial services industry to combat fraud, with companies like Wibmo and FICO utilizing machine learning and NoSQL databases like Couchbase to detect and prevent fraudulent transactions. Examples include Wibmo's Trident FRM platform, which monitors transactions in real-time, and FICO's Falcon Fraud Manager, which scores 65% of the world's credit/debit cards. Additionally, companies like Revolut are using AI-powered systems like Sherlock to identify and block fraudulent transactions, resulting in significant cost savings for customers. As these use cases continue to emerge, Couchbase customers remain at the forefront of innovation, incorporating AI into their businesses to create a better experience for their customers.
