alt Hacker NewsI think a lot of people are misunderstanding the typical workload of people in Financial Services. They aren't using Claude to transfer money, they're just building a LOT of slideshows and fancy excel docs on made-up numbers to try to sell mergers and new financing options/types of loans. Most programmers would just consider this "sales".

That’s a gross over generalization. Some of the insurance data here suggests use of AI to make underwriting decisions. There are several states with regulations which could potentially pull these agent solutions into their regulatory oversight if used by the industry to effect insurance outcomes.

It might be lower stakes, but isn't that still a juicy target for data-exfiltration attacks?
In other words, imagine if one of your direct competitors was watching everything your employee read while making spreadsheets and slideshows.
