Meet Tom Eck, Fiserv Senior VP Of Digital Transformation, At Benzinga's Fintech Deal Day
Tom Eck boasts more than three decades of industry experience.
The senior vice president of Digital Transformation at Fiserv Inc (NASDAQ:FISV) is going to be a panelist at Benzinga’s Fintech Deal Day. During the panel discussion, titled “Embracing AI in Fintech: Unleashing Innovation and Maximizing Impact," Eck will address how AI, or artificial intelligence, is spreading its influence across various fields.
Client360, for example, is Fiserv’s portal to services for Fiserv solutions. It includes a client-facing chatbot, issue resolution, and internal tools for Fiserv associates to support clients and their customers.
Separately, Eck has developed a product called Developer Studio, which is like a catalog of APIs and documentation for Wisconsin-based Fiserv. All data was taken from Developer Studio and a model was trained to make the developer’s job faster and easier.
“In the 30 years I’ve been at this (AI), I have never seen such an explosive and exponential growth in the power of these techniques," Eck said. "ChatGPT reached 100 million active users in just two months. That’s crazy. By comparison, TikTok took 9 months and credit cards took 15 years.”
But fintech is just one segment where the financial industry is made simpler using AI and tech. Witness Eck and other experts speak about AI adoption at Benzinga’s Fintech Deal Day & Awards.
