Banks are on an unstoppable uncontrolled trajectory in pursuit of KYC over-achievement. That is, they over-collect far more data on people than legally required (before it gets leaked to criminals in data breaches). Banks’ privacy policies are rife with anti-consumer weasel words.
It’s such a shit-show that privacy proponents have no real choice other than to quit banks and operate entirely with cash. Not many people have that level of discipline.
Software can turn this situation around. For example, there are ~6000 privacy-abusing banks and credit unions in the US. If a robot harvests all the privacy policies, fetches AOS apps to check permission reqs, records those with websites MitMd by Cloudflare, and uses all that info to find the lesser of evils, consumers can participate in creating a competition for privacy (as opposed to a competition of meaningless soul-selling fractions of a percent of interest earnings). The heart of the problem is banks are only getting pressure from the side of oppressors and tyranny and no pressure from the side of the people they purport to serve. Software and data can remedy this.
Worth noting that long before the AI bubble started, a university in the US studied bank privacy policies in bulk using a scraper bot that just looked at the standardised privacy disclosure forms for which all banks must conform to a standard layout. The data has rotted by now so their research is not of much use.
LLMs could do that for you, and it could be mostly accurate. The way to use AI and get reliable results is to have it do something that’s verifiable, and then verify it if you want actually reliable data. Like you could definitely have AI try to find the links to docs and features and whatnot as listed on their sites. Just make sure to keep the links it finds around and at least verify they’re what it says it is. You can use an AI to do that step, but LLMs do not actually reason and would be fully capable of false negatives and false positives on any determination no matter how small.
IMO, as long as you made the data fully auditable by hand as easily as possible (and that’d be a great idea for anything referencing externalities), it wouldn’t be bad to use “AI” to construct it. It’d even be a good idea if you want to just trust the AI’s output, as an auditable data set could be updated by AI, too, when policies change and whatnot.
