Workshop Abstract

Workshop Abstract

The finance sector is seeing a rapid increase in the application of machine learning and AI, with Large Language Models (LLMs), ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance) investing, and AI Safety significantly reshaping the field. This workshop focuses on how these advancements intersect with core financial AI applications. We will foster interdisciplinary discussion on applying LLMs to finance, addressing challenges in multilingual and non-English markets like Korea. The event will also highlight the integration of ESG signals into algorithmic decision-making and explore AI Safety, emphasizing reliability, fairness, and explainability for AI systems in regulated financial environments. By bringing together experts from academia, industry, and regulatory bodies, the workshop aims to stimulate discussions on practical issues, ethical dilemmas, and cutting-edge research shaping financial AI's future. We welcome submissions that combine technical rigor with societal relevance in AI-driven financial decisions.
