Artificial Intelligence in Financial Sectors: A Look at Klarna, JP Morgan, and Goldmann Sachs' AI Applications
In the ever-evolving world of technology, Artificial Intelligence (AI) is making significant strides, particularly in the medical and insurance industries. Here's a glimpse of how AI is reshaping these sectors in 2025.
Medical Industry Advancements
AI is revolutionizing medical diagnostics, preventive care, and treatment, thanks to its ability to process vast amounts of data quickly and accurately.
AI in Cancer Prognostics
AI models are now capable of predicting tumor stemness, a critical marker for cancer aggressiveness and likelihood of recurrence. This uses genetic and molecular data to help oncologists personalize treatment plans and improve clinical decisions in oncology [1].
Preventive Healthcare Platforms
Startups like Everlab are leveraging AI to scale platforms that analyze continuous biomarker data, generating personalized diagnostics, health alerts, and lifestyle recommendations aimed at preventive care [1].
AI-Assisted Radiology
AI is widely adopted in imaging diagnostics (X-rays, CT scans, MRIs) to identify abnormalities such as tumors or fractures faster and more accurately than before. This reduces diagnostic time and human error while improving early disease detection [3][5].
Predictive Analytics for Hospital Operations
AI is helping hospitals improve inventory management and operational efficiency, leading to substantial cost savings and waste reduction. Major institutions have reported up to 30% inventory reductions, avoiding billions in waste [3].
Continuous Remote Patient Monitoring
AI-powered wearable devices and mobile health apps track vital signs and activity patterns, allowing for early detection of events like stroke or heart attack and better management of chronic illnesses [4].
Clinical Decision Support and Surgical Assistance
AI tools are evolving to provide real-time, explainable recommendations integrated into electronic health records (EHRs). In surgery, AI assists with robotic systems and intraoperative imaging analysis to enhance precision and reduce risks [4].
Diagnostic AI Integration
New frameworks evaluate AI systems in realistic, interactive clinical workflows, demonstrating improvements over radiologists in detecting early-stage breast cancer and lung diseases from imaging, with fewer false positives [5].
Insurance Industry Advancements
The insurance industry is also embracing AI, with life insurers using generative AI to create synthetic data for augmenting datasets, improving risk modeling and policy underwriting accuracy [2]. AI is also helping predict patient health outcomes by analyzing large datasets, enabling more personalized health plans, improved risk assessment, and optimized coverage strategies [2].
Across insurance domains, generative AI enhances process automation, claims handling, fraud detection, and customer experience through more sophisticated AI-driven tools [2].
The Expanded Role of AI
These advancements illustrate AI's expanded role in transforming medical diagnostics, preventive care, clinical operations, and personalized treatment, as well as enhancing insurer risk management and customer service through sophisticated data analytics and generative models. The convergence of AI with continuous monitoring, predictive analytics, and dynamic risk simulation is reshaping healthcare and insurance landscapes in 2025 [1][2][3][4][5].
AI in Finance and Beyond
Maik Klotz, Co-Founder of Payment & Banking, is at the forefront of these changes, particularly in the financial sector. He is responsible for marketing, strategy, and events, particularly for Transactions.io. Klotz is also a beekeeper and a consultant, speaker, and author on various topics including banking, payment, digital identity, e-commerce, and retail [6].
The ninth episode of "AI in Finance," a podcast hosted by an AI enthusiast but not a fortune teller, focuses on the advancements in AI across various industries, including the medical industry and insurance [7]. AI is becoming increasingly integrated in the financial sector, with Klarna integrating conversational commerce into customer service and JP Morgan boosting efficiency in investment banking with "Coach AI" [8].
Meanwhile, Europe is currently lagging behind in AI advancements compared to China [9]. However, the demand for computing power is increasing, and there is a growing ambition to establish AI as the core of digital platforms, with OpenAI and Microsoft investing billions into new data centers and AI infrastructure [10].
Netflix is also exploring the potential of AI for personalized advertising [11]. The insurance industry is even exploring the potential to develop new policies against AI risks [12]. A new way of interacting with software, the MCP (Model Context Protocol), is also emerging [13].

AI's influence is not restricted to the medical and insurance industries; in the finance sector, it is enhancing the efficiency of investment banking and customer service. For instance, Klarna incorporates conversational commerce, while JP Morgan utilizes "Coach AI."
Artificial intelligence is also expanding its presence in various fields, with open-ended AI generating synthetic data to improve risk modeling and underwriting accuracy in life insurance. This progress has led to more personalized health plans and optimized coverage strategies in the insurance industry.
