LLMs for Knowledge Management in Banking

Current State Enhanced State

1. Search is limited to a keyword search and creates inefficiencies when 1. LLMs can enhance search by creating richer embeddings for contextual
searching on query context search and accommodating natural language querying

2. Content metadata tends to be lacking and often faces completeness and 2. LLMs can be used for automating metadata generation that can be

3. Chatbots built on a set of predetermined FAQs so answers are limited to 3. LLM-powered internal chatbots can be leveraged to analyze content as well
those content areas as find / synthesize the correct answer to user queries

Automated Driving Systems (ADS) must comply with traffic rules and regulations (“rules of the road”). Rules of the road are heavily fragmented, not
harmonized across different jurisdictions, not machine-readable, and open for interpretation.
The LLM for digitization of on-road rules harnesses the power of Generative AI for extracting and formatting all relevant rules of the road within a given
geographic jurisdiction for a given driving scenario.

Collect Scrape traffic rules and Query Ask in natural language Extract Collect relevant sources

AI in Multifidelity Drug Design in Health Sciences & Wellness

Problem Statement
Problem Statement: Multifidelity drug discovery often involves a larger dataset of low fidelity screening data and a smaller set of computationally expensive
high fidelity confirmatory data, presenting a challenge in leveraging the available information effectively.
Artificial intelligence can address this challenge by developing models that utilize machine learning techniques to extend the applicability of computationally
expensive Free Energy Perturbation (FEP) methods, enabling accurate predictions and reducing the computational burden in multifidelity drug screening.

L1: Proof of concept

x Case example: Demand Forecasting - Port Logistics Operator USE CASE | ILLUSTRATIVE
Port Logistics Operator

 Logistics present an overwhelming challenge for one of the world’s largest port operators. Nearly 100 vessels move in and out every day, each
carrying up to 20,000 20-foot containers, requiring giant trucks, cranes and workers with diverse skills to service them. Any miscalculation in a
Challenge vessel’s arrival time has the potential to create significant delays for the port. When this takes place, vessels are left without somewhere to dock,
workers wait without a job to perform, and machinery gets bottlenecked
 Helping the client develop an approach to accurately predict vessel movement and from there, better allocate people and machinery was the remit

 Using AI machine learning and new data sources, EY helped develop three live solutions with more than 20 AI models built and integrated to
predict: vessel arrival 14 days out, resources the port would need to meet demand, and potential machinery choke points in the yard
 The team used extensive historical databases to inform the machine learning model with variables such as tidal patterns, vessel sizes and past
Solution variations in arrival times from different shipping lines. By incorporating this historical data with satellite navigation and each vessel’s declared arrival
time, the vessel movement model proved to be materially more accurate than the port operator’s previous system
 More precise arrival times subsequently allowed for more accurate workforce planning; which, in turn, better highlighted potential choke points and
allowed for real-time suggestions for faster driving routes through the yard so that machinery was where it needed to be at the right time

 Together, these three automated AI solutions significantly increased the port’s efficiency and helped to deliver substantial cost savings. The
automated AI solution for vessel movement alone increased accuracy by 3% which translated to approximately US$10.2 million in savings in the near
Realized term
business impact
 In addition to this macro impact for the client, better predictions have meant that workers on the ground now have more predictable work hours, with
little down-time during a shift and reduced over-time due to unexpected vessel delays

Challenge  At peak times, 100+ people are solely responsible for taking hard copy questionnaires and lab documents from the infectious disease agency and
entering that data into an online system. The lack of a digital workflow is inefficient, locks critical resources to data entry tasks, processing that is

x Case example: Reconciliation process for Investment Bank USE CASE | ILLUSTRATIVE
Machine learning reconciliation for an investment bank

The client’s reconciliation process was proving insufficient with the existing rules-based system and, as a result, a large operations team was manually
processing breaks. Key challenges included:
 A high number of breaks daily that could not be effectively managed manually
Problem
 The existing reconciliation tool was unable to manage multiple matches (i.e. consolidated entries)
 No prioritization or closest match provided by the rules-based reconciliations tool
 Significant FTE effort spent each day to find matches that could be spent on higher value work

 The EY DnA team built a machine learning model which has improved the reconciliations process by providing recommended matches to the

Solution  The new model was designed to be more flexible in handling breaks and make recommendations for subsequent human action, accelerating the
overall process as a cognitive aid
 The intention is to productionise the model to enhance the existing rules-based system that had proved to be insufficient

 The ML model is expected to find matches up to 50% quicker than the previous manual process, as well as to provide a prioritization to further
