Description: This panel will take a holistic deep dive on the intersection of pending regulatory, actuarial, and technical developments in artificial intelligence (AI). Panelists will explore how AI and the diverse and evolving regulatory landscape surrounding this technology will impact actuaries' day-to-day jobs in managing risk, and what the (re)insurance industry is doing to leverage AI to streamline internal processes and simplify underwriting.

Description: Building new models or migrating from one system to another is hard! During this session, you will hear from your colleagues who have gone through such projects. You will gain a better sense of what to expect, what to avoid, and what to prioritize for such projects. The discussion will be system agnostic. Learn about pitfalls and how to avoid them!

Description: The insurance industry is faced with many unforeseen changes such as recent advances in technologies and the associated impacts on the risk assessments. In this session, we focus on two specific developments; (i) the liquidity provision problem on automated market makers (a.k.a. DeFi exchanges such as Uniswap) and the conditions under which liquidity providers should enter or exit the DeFi token pools; and (ii) efficient utilization of drivers telematics data for better risk classification in personal auto insurance.

Description: Leveraging the research papers "Emerging Technologies and their Impact on Actuarial Science and Top Actuarial Technologies," the presenters of this session will highlight current and emerging actuarial technology trends, discuss how these trends will impact the day-to-day work of actuaries, and explain what actuaries can do to adapt.

Description: Learn how insurers provide new opportunities for efficiency and value creation from product design and underwriting through customer engagement and claims. Glimpse some industry use cases for Gen AI and its outcomes as observed by the first movers.

Description: At the end of December 2020, Congress enacted the Consolidated Appropriates Act, 2021, which included revisions to Section 7702. Effective for policies issued after December 31, 2020, the fixed 4% and 6% minimum annual effective rates under these tests were changed to refer to a market-based rate called the “insurance interest rate”. For contracts issued in 2021, the insurance rate was set to 2% - defined as the lower of the Section 7702 applicable federal interest rate based on the 60-month period ending December 2019 (2%) and the Section 7702 valuation interest rate in effect for 2020 (3.5%). This reduction in the rates used for compliance testing required significant product, operational, and technology changes for companies to reach product compliance. After 2021, the insurance interest rate is redetermined annually with a minimum change floor.

Description: For actuaries, finance and IT professionals, the long-duration targeted improvements (LDTI) implementation has been a career milestone. These projects were often the most significant undertaking of individuals’ careers, with respect to scale, complexity and duration. Join this session and participate in small groups, with consideration given to ensure each group has representation from both 2023 and 2025 filers., with moderators presenting questions to encourage small group discussion.

Description: Today's best AIs often match human experts on routine tasks - but AI automation success requires skilled implementation. Nathan will present a field-tested, three-step method for automating cognitive work: (1) understanding what AI can do & choosing the right tasks, (2) documenting processes in the form of ""gold standard examples"", and (3) systematically optimizing AI performance – all using concrete examples from actuarial practice. Master this approach and amplify your own expertise by automating repetitive work with AI.
