The operating question.

How financial institutions get mis-sold AI.

Finance teams get mis-sold AI when vendors sell dashboards, demos, or adoption metrics as if they prove operating value or control. They do not.

What to ask instead.

  • What workflow changed?
  • What source evidence proves the output was correct?
  • What happens when the model, prompt, source data, or user behavior changes?
  • Who owns the exception when the output is wrong?

Buyer-side test.

Ask for measurement, materiality, trace evidence, and reviewer boundaries before buying the governance narrative.
