    AI-Based Synthetic Medical Claims Data Generation

    In this episode of Get Plugged In, Dale Hall, Managing Director of Research at the Society of Actuaries Research Institute, welcomes Shea Parkes, Actuary and FSA, and one of the authors of the Society of Actuaries Research Institute report, AI-Based Synthetic Medical Claims Data Generation: A Practical Guide for Actuaries. The conversation explores how generative AI can be used to create realistic, privacy-preserving synthetic medical claims data to support research, model development, education, and actuarial analytics. Shea discusses why synthetic data is a promising solution for actuaries and healthcare researchers, how different data-generation approaches can support structure-focused and analytics-focused use cases, and what privacy considerations actuaries should keep in mind when working with AI-generated data. Listen in to learn more about the opportunities, trade-offs, and practical applications of synthetic medical claims data for the actuarial profession.

    Practical AI for Actuarial Modeling

    In this episode of the Society of Actuaries Research Institute's Get Plugged In podcast series, AI Insights, host Dale Hall sits down with Igor Nikitin, CEO and Co-Founder of Nice Technologies, for a practical conversation on what AI can (and can't) do for actuarial modeling today. Igor shares real-world examples of AI in action and discusses how AI can support model development through explanation, testing, documentation, and review—while also highlighting where the hype outpaces reality. The discussion covers how to evaluate AI value, spot red flags (like limited domain training data and "black box" outputs), and build the governance and accountability needed to maintain trust when AI is involved in actuarial work. Listeners will also hear Igor's advice for actuarial organizations starting their AI journey: start small, establish privacy and usage guidelines, require citations and second reviews, and always model costs at production scale before committing to major investments.

    National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) and AI

    In this episode of Get Plugged In – AI Insights, Dale Hall (Managing Director, Society of Actuaries Research Institute) sits down with Ronald Poon Affat, Independent Board Director & Cross-Continental Actuary, joining live from São Paulo, Brazil, to explore how NIST is shaping the standards that will define trustworthy AI—and why that matters for actuaries. They discuss what the NIST AI Consortium is, why the SOA is actively contributing through its AI Safety Working Group, and what it's like collaborating with leading voices across technology, academia, and public policy. The conversation also dives into the next major focus area: TEVV (Testing, Evaluation, Verification, and Validation)—a practical "quality assurance" approach to ensure AI models are fair, explainable, reliable, and ready for regulatory scrutiny. Listen in for a clear, actuarial lens on where AI governance is headed in insurance—and how actuaries can lead by asking the right risk questions.
