EAA Web Session ‚GenAI: Is it all about Attention or also about Predictability?‘

Artificial Intelligence is rapidly moving from experimentation to infrastructure in actuarial work. AI systems are beginning to influence decisions that were historically driven by statistical models, expert judgment, and regulatory constraints. This session focuses on understanding what is happening under the hood of modern Generative AI systems, particularly large language models and AI agents. What does “attention” mean in technical terms, and why is it foundational to how these systems process information? How do agentic systems differ from classical predictive models? And critically for actuarial practice: where does predictability break down?

We will examine both the capabilities and the limitations of AI. In domains characterized by uncertainty, feedback loops, and human behavior, no system, human or machine, offers perfect foresight. Understanding these boundaries is essential for responsible adoption. The objective is not to replace actuarial judgment, but to augment it, while ensuring that humans remain accountable for decisions in high-stakes contexts.
