Your bank account and mobile money wallet are now an AI playground. In this episode, we reveal how Artificial Intelligence is the hidden engine behind Uganda’s entire financial scene—powering everything from the major banks like Stanbic to FinTech startups like Numida. We explore the real-world AI used for fraud detection, instant digital loans, and 24/7 customer service chatbots.
But it's not all good news. We expose the dark side: how biased algorithms can create a new form of 'digital redlining,' the lack of data privacy across both banks and telcos, and why you can be denied a loan without ever knowing why.
