14 Jan, 2025
12:00pm ET (1 hour)
Summary
Artificial intelligence is reshaping fraud prevention faster than many teams can adapt. While consumer adoption promises new opportunities for revenue growth, the rise of agentic AI in the hands of fraudsters is creating uncertainty and raising critical questions about what comes next.
In this session, Sift Trust and Safety Architect, Alexander Hall, and the MRC Director of Technology and Innovation, Dafyd Jones, will put two leading AI platforms to the test, prompting each with real fraud scenarios and comparing their predictions against the expertise of frontline operators. Attendees will gain a clear, unfiltered view of how AI anticipates the next wave of threats, and where human judgement remains essential.
Learning Objectives
- A first-hand look at which AI-predicted fraud tactics are most likely to dominate in 2026.
- A breakdown of the strengths and limitations of relying on AI in fraud prevention, and the safeguards that matter most.
- Actionable steps teams can take now to prepare for the evolving threat landscape of 2026.
