Jess, I have enjoyed the chat.

Thank you so much for your time and for being on the show.

Did you know we have video clips of the interviews we air on The Last Show?

Watch the brilliant academics who show up, take our stupid questions, pause, sigh, and answer them anyway.

To see these clips, follow us on social media.

We're on TikTok, YouTube, Instagram, and more.

Our handle on these platforms is lastshow.pizza.

Coming up after the break.

Whether you know it or not, AI is starting to manage your money, predicting what you'll spend, when you'll save, even whether you deserve credit.

Are the robots a helpful financial assistant or an algorithmic accountant watching your every move?

We'll pick that apart for you in a moment.

Money used to be simple.

You earned it, you spent it, you maybe argued with your bank about it.

Heck, it was a piece of paper you carried in your pocket.

But now AI wants to analyze it, predict it, manage it for you.

Are we still in control of our finances in a world where banks and financial companies use AI?

Or are we just outsourcing everything to do with money to the robots?

Well, that is what we're going to discuss here with Osama Mansour, an associate professor of information systems at Lund University.

Osama, welcome to the show.

Oh, thank you, David.
