Today’s guest is Kelly Dempski, Head of Solutions for Banking, Financial Services, and Insurance (BFSI) at Turing. Turing is one of the world’s fastest-growing Artificial Intelligence companies, working with the world’s leading AI labs to advance frontier model capabilities and leveraging that work to build real-world AI systems that help businesses solve their toughest problems — delivering real business results, faster, smarter, and at scale. Kelly is a seasoned technology executive and innovator at Turing, where he leads the development of disruptive, business-focused Artificial Intelligence solutions for financial services clients. Over a 30-year career, he has held Managing Director roles at Accenture, Citi, and JPMorgan Chase, as well as working with smaller start-ups. In each role, he has developed solutions that leverage the latest technologies to solve real business problems. As AI becomes increasingly essential to the financial services industry, Kelly offers a grounded perspective on what really makes or breaks enterprise adoption. He explains that the greatest challenges aren’t always in the AI models themselves — but in how they connect to legacy systems, regulatory requirements, and fragmented data environments. From document intelligence to client onboarding, Kelly explores the use cases where AI is already delivering measurable value — and how firms can scale that value by starting small and building momentum.
