Description:
Advanced AI and large language models (LLMs) are being used to solve multiple business cases, including compliance tasks. Harnessing training datasets based on goods descriptions, trading entities etc with LLMs can provide compliance teams with the building blocks for an export control identification tool. This webinar session will discuss the potential for creating and building such a model, the type and size of data required and its governance processes.
What the webinar aims to cover:
- LLMs and their application to sanctions compliance and export controls
- Build or buy – what data is applicable, where can it be sourced from and how it can be used
- Governance processes to ensure LLM remains relevant and compliant to those who use it
