Many lenders have experimented with AI, but fewer have successfully scaled it across core operations. This session examines how organizations are moving beyond proofs of concept to embed AI into underwriting, processing, quality control, and servicing workflows. Panelists will discuss change management, model governance, data readiness, and integration with LOS and core systems. Attendees will learn what it takes to operationalize AI responsibly, where implementations commonly stall, and how leading lenders are aligning people, process, and technology to drive sustained impact.
