    A Quantum of Skynet - FinTech Daydreaming & Mobey Forum

    AI is already reshaping the cybersecurity landscape. Quantum computing could transform it again. For financial institutions, the combination raises some big questions — about security, encryption and even the future of decentralized finance. These are conversations that are increasingly relevant across the Mobey Forum community. Together with FinTech Daydreaming, we brought two experts into the discussion: Juha Vesanto, Head of the New Quantum and AI Research Center at OP Pohjola, and André Schmidt, Lead Secure Responsible AI & Data Protection at Accenture and a member of Mobey Forum’s AI Expert Group. Joined by FinTech Daydreaming hosts Ville Sointu and Pål Krogdahl, they explore the rapidly approaching intersection of artificial intelligence and quantum computing in financial services. In this episode, they break down: The AI Attack Swarm: Frontier AI models are drastically lowering the barrier to entry for cybercriminals. The panel discusses how institutions must shift to an "assume breach" mentality and zero-trust architecture, referencing recent protracted AI agent attacks on Hugging Face and social engineering breaches against Revolut in Italy.Preparing for Q-Day: Quantum computing threatens to shatter the public-key encryption (like elliptic curves) that currently secures the internet. Juha explains the urgent need for "crypto agility" and "harvest now, decrypt later" defense strategies, while also highlighting the positive, massive optimization potential quantum holds for the future of finance.Are Public Blockchains Cooked?: We debate whether decentralized finance and public ledgers can survive. Because smart contracts are immutable and currently lack the governance to force key updates, the panel warns that DeFi might be a sitting duck against the combined power of AI and quantum decryption.Juha and André will and will also be on the agenda at Mobey's upcoming Member Meeting in Brussels, where the conversation will continue.

    Wallets, Payments, Identity, and AI: 25 Years of Mobey Lessons — and the Road Ahead

    Join Kasper Sylvest, Chair of Mobey Forum’s Board of Directors, as he revisits the industry’s turning points together with the ‘Mobey veterans’ Kristian T. Sorensen (IN Groupe), Amir Tabakovic (experiens.AI), and Ville Sointu (Nordea).  They reflect on how Mobey and the industry grew up together, with Mobey frequently anticipating the next shift — and why the most exciting changes may still be ahead. In this podcast, they trace the predictions, turning points, and lessons that have shaped the way we pay, identify ourselves, and imagine the future of banking.  What topics were explored:  “This is the year of NFC” (… said every year, for a decade): For ten years, each new year was predicted to be the year of NFC. However, a breakthrough for NFC finally came with the emergence of HCE and a memorable unveiling of the world’s first HCE demo at Mobey’s Member Meeting.The Wallet Era: From those beginnings came the era of the digital wallet — and the Mobey’s definition of a wallet that still holds firm today. The work evolved into the Control Points Framework to analyse the ownership dynamics in the wallet, and it’s still being used today for an analytical update of the wallet space.From Payments to Identity: We began with payment wallets where ID was a feature. Now we are entering the age of ID wallets, with payments as the add-on. But perhaps what matters most isn’t the container’s name — only that we can access it.Still Talking Wallets: We know the answer is “wallets,” but what exactly is the question? And should they even be called wallets?“Payment is not a product. It’s a feature .”  A famous Mobey quote that is still as true today as ever, and one that product teams often forget. Its source may be forgotten, but its impact endures.From Predictive Analytics to AI: A decade ago, we called it predictive analytics. Today, it’s AI in banking. Either way, it’s another means to an end. The challenge today is in creating the right environment for banks to harness AI effectively, guided by best practices and sound governance.When we see real gold, we build on it. When we see hype, we expose it. That has always been Mobey’s role. Enjoy! Support the show mobeyforum.org LinkedIn Youtube
