My new trainee just gave me the most AI-generated document I have ever seen. I asked him to design a risk management questionnaire, i read the first question, asked him what it meant, and he immediately said, “You’re right, it’s a bad survey. I will rework it.” Wow, he even apologised like an AI.

This is a common credit card fraud pattern on online casinos, the ecosystem risk management answer is for casinos to only allow withdrawals on the accounts that made the payment, time limits to change withdrawal addresses, and liability for PSPs not doing fraud checks…

There is a licence for banks who don’t want to take risks, it’s called a payment service provider (money transmitter for fellow US), it’s cheaper and less demanding Revolut started like this and then spent the last decade fighting to get a banking licence precisely to take risks

An Onion article titled “Talking to your child about the WTC attack,” which is filled with real good info.
