Description: Dive into the basics of Generative AI (including Large Language Models and ChatGPT), why it is important, and how might it potentially affect how people and actuaries perform their work. After a brief introduction, you'll walk through some live demonstrations of the technology followed by interactive breakout discussions on how the technology might impact each attendee's work. You will also culminate in a summarization of the breakouts, discussion of implications for the profession, as well as precautions to take when using the technology. Come discover the basics of the technology and its implications for the work performed by actuaries. They will also learn, via the live demonstration, how to access ChatGPT (or similar platform) and will follow along how to generate outputs from the application based on some example inputs provided. Take away some resources from which you can learn more about Generative AI, Large Language Models, ChatGPT, etc.

Description: This session will cover the current and potential use of artificial intelligence (AI) in the health care space. Participate in this interactive session and learn how AI is being used today and discuss its potential to reshape and revolutionize health care. You will get an opportunity to learn how AI can influence patient experience in every phase of healthcare delivery and talk about the challenges and limitations that arise with the use of this technology.

Description: The rapid evolution of life insurance underwriting has created pricing and operational challenges and raised new questions about established approaches to assumption development, both of which demand a fresh perspective. As underwriting methods evolve, we find ourselves navigating uncharted territory. In this session, we delve into accelerated underwriting, focusing on two critical areas. First, we explore assumption setting in this new world, where numerous interaction effects can make it feel like we’re asked to consider everything, from every angle, all at once. Considerations for assumption setting must encompass early performance indicators—what signals inform our assumptions? Additionally, we address novel underwriting approaches and how to adapt assumptions for these paradigms. Furthermore, in the context of post-COVID claims experience, we discuss distinguishing meaningful insights from noise. Second, we examine declinable risks and their impact on mortality. In this new world ushered in by accelerated underwriting, previously excluded risks—low-frequency, high-severity declinable cases—are now part of the landscape. Quantifying their mortality impact challenges us, as historical data lacks systematic tracking. To quantify declinable risks, we draw upon research findings from analyzing 27 million life insurance applicants, providing valuable insights for attendees to navigate this dynamic landscape and make informed assumptions for pricing and risk management.

Description: In this session, we will do a deep dive into the potential of large language models; we will explore how new AI tools can be combined with traditional modeling to automate aspects of risk assessment. Industry experts focused on operationalizing this technology will talk through their approaches, lessons learned and demo use cases. We will also share insights around creating a robust AI strategy based on business objectives and regulatory considerations. Learning Outcomes: • Applications of large language models in risk assessment use cases • Regulatory considerations around the use of generative AI

Description: Volatile interest rates, repositioned investment portfolios, and stress in the banking sector are driving insurers to manage market risk and counterparty credit risk. Our experts in investments, derivatives, and hedge accounting will discuss this new market environment and its impact on hedging. The conversation will include practical case studies, including hedging future bond purchases, hedging floating-rate CLOs, and counterparty credit risk management.

Description: This session is an in-depth interview of two actuaries turned Artificial Intelligence (AI) experts. We aim to have a conversation that gleans into each of their journeys and what led them to the path they are now on. We will open up the last ten minutes for audience questions. At the conclusion of this session, attendees will know Eric and Joe much better, have an understanding of what AI/machine learning/data scientist work is like for actuaries, and, for those who are curious to get more involved with AI, some encouragement to pursue their interests.

Description: We're introducing a new “cutting edge” wealth accumulation predictive framework, the predictive equity analytics (PEA) for life products (annuity, insurance, group employer benefits, retirement plan). PEA enables life insurers and policyholders to avoid market downturns and capture returns from equities (stocks, ETFs and mutual funds) predicted to increase in next one to three trade days via fund prediction advisory by insurers, additionally by individual policyholders. The capability does not exist in insurance markets nor in financial intermediary markets.

Description: As the speed of technological innovation increases, actuarial leaders are trying to determine how to use emerging technologies to unlock more business value and improve competitive positioning. This includes enabling new capabilities, improving process efficiency, and increasing the effectiveness of human capital. The session will discuss what we are hearing from clients who are in the process of transforming their business, how they are approaching these transformations, and what they are focusing on. This will include different aspects of transformation, including visualization dashboards, data science applications, no-code platforms, automation, data, and the cloud. Find out how organizations are thinking of human capital and collaboration between actuaries, IT, and other professionals.

Description: Gather with members and non-members in the China actuarial community to discuss recent topics and related issues in areas such as macroeconomic sharing, pension, investment, product strategy, and more.
