I wouldn't mind if was only three days - but two weeks?

Your delay might be a combination of Nacha and the "three days good funds" model.

It will...?

Microsoft and many IoT companies are already doing it for years...

If I knew how AI could improve FinTech I'd be developing something right now.
One area I'll have to do myself soon that maybe AI could help with is with reviewing transactions and looking for patterns.

Your banking provider is a chatbot?
Given the fees I pay to my bank, they'll be losing a customer the instant I can't pick up the phone and talk to an actual real, live person.
That said, I still give them the benefit of being away outside regular business hours.

Leading fintech companies already extensively use AI to change the sector for the better.... for them. As others have said, fintech companies generally don't care about what's best for the customer. Like any business, their goal is to improve their profits.
Having had some "FinTech" clients as a freelancer I know that in many cases their idea of "AI" involves a single IF statement. More often it involves totally ignoring the customers' input and directing them to whichever financial product they want to push that week.

By getting rid of money.
I'm serious. How much money is in your bank account is such as moronic and archaic way of measuring "wealth", by which I mean one's skills, knowledge, and things that don't have any real value in the world at the moment unless you can somehow "get rich" on your talents. What a f****** up way to live and do commerce.

I'm going to be the grumpy old ![Elephant | [mastadon]](https://codeproject.freetls.fastly.net/script/Forums/Images/elephant.gif) here. If I need to adjust my account in some way that affects my access to something I rely on, I'm not going to do it through phone automation, especially when it wants you to talk to it. If I'm on the phone it means the web access couldn't do it. The chances that the phone system can do it are less than that. I think I have a reasonably understandable and clear speaking voice, yet a lot of these systems think when I say "operator" they think I said "fork your mother" and get all pissy about it.
If I'm on the phone, I want to talk to a human being. The AI's being touted for these customer-facing systems aren't artificially intelligent at all. The AI or machine learning is just a fancy way to let humans use sloppy syntax negotiating their 14-node tree of permissible operations.

I don't.
The key word is artificial - definitely NOT intelligence!
The people who support it must be very unaware of themselves and feel quite inferior.
It makes me laugh. Maybe AC would be a better name "artificial comedy".
AI reminds me of quick sand. The more you struggle with it the deeper you sink.
Sorry all but after 35 years in IT that's my view.

What is being called artificial intelligence is nothing more than a really fact way to do statistical analysis. There is no understanding, no intelligence, just statistics.

I am attempting to migrate some of our custom-created in-house software to the cloud. I've done the basic research, but have yet to put the pieces together to form a simple basic task that truly employs something that is cloud-based. Can anyone point me to a suitable resource? I'm pretty intelligent, and understand the general concept of cloud computing, but need to know the nuts and bolts. Thanks in advance.

The nightmare begins. Containers. Docker instances. AWS. Azure. Goofy names for things. AWS documentation hell. Security issues. Performance issues. AWS Lambda vs. Azure Functions vs. Google Cloud Functions. Monitoring cost. Updating the cloud with new releases. And on and on and on.
So the real question is, why?

Why indeed! Simple answer is that the government is forcing us to do so. I have fought them with logic and disputed their reasoning for 3 years now and it's like talking to a wall. We either comply or they don't allow our software to handle the inspection data that we generate, which they lay claim to (although even that is disputable IMO). Long story short - I don't exactly want to because what we have works great, but we have to at least look like we're progressing toward that end.

It depends on what you have. For example, if you want to move an IIS website then you could go to an App Service in Azure. If you want to move a SQL db (or others) to the cloud you want Azure Sql.
Windows Services have lots of options.
So, depends on what exactly you are doing.

We currently have multiple software packages programmed in C# and use multiple SQL databases. I don't have a preference to AWS, Azure, or any other platform yet. Sounds to me if I understand you correctly, that Azure is going to be our best option. The big obstacle right now is that some of our software receives external input from devices connected to a computer (weight scales). Moving to a browser-based interface is presenting significant challenges to us because we operate under governmental security guidelines (FISMA, etc.)
