Like many institutions, credit unions can't afford to be left behind in the race to adapt to the new AI-driven technological landscape. But successfully and responsibly leveraging AI goes beyond adopting AI solutions for the sake of checking off a box—it involves identifying opportunities to collaborate with seasoned partners who can help solve the problems that AI is equipped to solve.

This week’s episode features a conversation with Upstart Senior Account Managers Barry Roach and Drew Megrey, which originally took place on an episode of The CU Lab. Barry and Drew outline the crucial role of a strong digital and AI strategy in helping credit unions tackle issues like liquidity restraints and regulatory hurdles—and they explore how strategic AI adoption can help credit unions not just keep up, but lead the way.
