    Your Banks's Culture - On AI! With Marlene Duhart

    Future Tech Banker is hosted by Alec Crawford, Eric Cook, and Jack Hubbard. Together, they bring deep experience in banking, digital strategy, risk, business development, and industry leadership. The podcast explores the trends, technologies, and ideas shaping the future of community banking, with conversations focused on innovation, growth, leadership, customer experience, and the future of the industry. This podcast is sponsored by Verapath (www.verapath.com), WSI, and Saint Meyer & Hubbard. Marlene Duhart, Chief Information Security Officer at Southern Bancorp (soon to become Uplift Bank), joined Future Tech Banker to discuss how community banks can responsibly embrace AI while staying true to their mission. Drawing on experience at Oracle, Visa, Zions Bank, Silicon Valley Bank, and now Southern Bancorp, she explains how AI is transforming banking—not just as a technology initiative, but as a cultural shift that empowers employees, improves decision-making, and strengthens customer service. The conversation explores AI governance, core banking conversions, productivity gains, data democratization, cybersecurity, and how mission-driven financial institutions can use innovation to better serve underserved communities. Top 5 themes from the episode AI is a cultural transformation, not just a technology project. Successful adoption requires leadership support, employee training, AI champions across the organization, and governance that encourages responsible experimentation rather than fear.Banking has always been a data business, and AI unlocks that data. Conversational AI enables employees across departments to access insights without needing technical expertise, allowing better questions, faster analysis, and more informed decisions.AI delivers measurable operational efficiency. From comparing corporate policies during a bank merger to accelerating core conversion tasks and automating routine work, AI significantly reduces manual effort while improving consistency and accuracy.Mission-driven banks can use AI to expand financial inclusion. AI supports multilingual services, financial education, and improved customer engagement, helping community development financial institutions (CDFIs) better serve underserved individuals and small businesses.Strong governance and trusted partnerships are essential. Banks should establish AI policies, measure return on investment, implement appropriate security controls, and work with partners who understand both AI technology and the unique regulatory and operational needs of banking.

    Amplify Employees with AI, with DJ Seeterlin

    Future Tech Banker is hosted by Alec Crawford, Eric Cook, and Jack Hubbard. Together, they bring deep experience in banking, digital strategy, risk, business development, and industry leadership. The podcast explores the trends, technologies, and ideas shaping the future of community banking, with conversations focused on innovation, growth, leadership, customer experience, and the future of the industry. This podcast is sponsored by Verapath (www.verapath.com), WSI, and Saint Meyer & Hubbard. This episode of Future Tech Banker features DJ Seeterlin, Chief Innovation & Strategy Officer at Chesapeake Bank, in a practical discussion about how community banks can successfully adopt AI without losing their human-centered culture. Rather than treating AI as a cost-cutting tool, Seeterlin explains how Chesapeake is using it to amplify employees, improve customer service, strengthen payments, and drive growth. The conversation also explores AI governance, innovation leadership, payment modernization, and why curiosity—not technology—is the key differentiator for community banks. Top 5 TakeawaysAI should amplify employees, not replace them. Chesapeake Bank's strategy is built around using AI to make employees more effective, giving them better information and more time to serve customers rather than reducing headcount.Innovation begins with leadership and culture—not technology. Before deploying AI tools, Chesapeake trained its executive team, created AI champions across the organization, and established a culture where experimentation and learning are encouraged. Successful AI adoption is as much about people as software.Governance should enable innovation, not block it. Seeterlin argues that risk and compliance teams should ask, "How can we do this safely?" instead of simply saying no. Banks that balance governance with growth will move faster and achieve better outcomes.Payments are ripe for AI-driven modernization. Rather than focusing on making transactions faster, Chesapeake uses AI to improve risk management, underwriting, customer insight, and business payment workflows. The bank is also helping businesses move away from paper checks toward integrated digital payment experiences.Curiosity is the most valuable AI skill. Whether you're an intern or a CEO, the best way to begin with AI is to experiment, share what you learn, and keep asking questions. Organizations build momentum when employees openly discuss how AI helps them solve real business problems.

    The Banker's AI Survival Guide, with Mike Kaput

    Future Tech Banker is hosted by Alec Crawford, Eric Cook, and Jack Hubbard. Together, they bring deep experience in banking, digital strategy, risk, business development, and industry leadership. The podcast explores the trends, technologies, and ideas shaping the future of community banking, with conversations focused on innovation, growth, leadership, customer experience, and the future of the industry. This podcast is sponsored by Verapath (www.verapath.com), WSI, and Saint Meyer & Hubbard. In this episode, Mike Kaput, Chief Content Officer at SmarterX and the Marketing AI Institute, joins Future Tech Banker to discuss why AI is no longer just another technology trend but a fundamental shift in how banks will operate and compete. The conversation explores practical strategies for bank leaders to begin their AI journey, how to measure ROI, why change management matters more than technology, and why the rise of AI agents will redefine the future workforce. Throughout the discussion, Mike emphasizes that the banks that start learning today—even through small experiments—will be best positioned to thrive as AI transforms every aspect of financial services. Top 5 TakeawaysAI won't replace bankers—but bankers who use AI will replace those who don't. Bank leaders should encourage every employee to develop AI skills now because AI literacy is quickly becoming as important as digital literacy.Leadership and culture—not technology—determine AI success. Buying Copilot or another AI platform is only the first step; executive sponsorship, employee training, and organizational buy-in ultimately determine whether AI delivers meaningful business value.Start small and prove ROI before scaling. Banks should focus on specific use cases like loan documentation, compliance, marketing, or customer communications where time savings and productivity gains can be measured and expanded over time.AI agents will become digital coworkers throughout the bank. Rather than simply answering questions, AI agents will increasingly perform work autonomously, requiring managers to supervise teams of both human employees and AI assistants.Don't wait for perfect governance or perfect technology. The banks gaining a competitive advantage are already experimenting with AI in low-risk areas, building institutional knowledge that will compound as the technology rapidly advances. Here are five useful resources mentioned during the episode for bankers who want to learn more about AI: SmarterX – AI transformation consulting, executive education, and enterprise AI adoption: https://www.smarterx.aiMarketing AI Institute – AI research, articles, courses, and the annual MAICON conference: https://www.marketingaiinstitute.comMAICON (Marketing AI Conference) – One of the leading AI conferences for business leaders and marketers: https://www.maicon.ai Copyright (c) 2026 by Artificial Intelligence Risk, Inc., DBA Verapath

    Every Banker Needs an AI Strategy Now, with Bill Fink

    Future Tech Banker is hosted by Alec Crawford, Eric Cook, and Jack Hubbard. Together, they bring deep experience in banking, digital strategy, risk, business development, and industry leadership. The podcast explores the trends, technologies, and ideas shaping the future of community banking, with conversations focused on innovation, growth, leadership, customer experience, and the future of the industry. This podcast is sponsored by Verapath (www.verapath.com), WSI, and Saint Meyer & Hubbard. Bill Fink, Executive Vice President and Head of Commercial Banking at Provident Bank, shares a pragmatic banker's perspective on the economy, artificial intelligence, and the future of relationship banking. Drawing on more than 25 years of experience in commercial banking, Bill explains why disciplined strategy, thoughtful AI adoption, and strong customer relationships will separate winning banks from the rest. The conversation explores economic uncertainty, interest rates, AI governance, enterprise AI use cases, and why the most successful bankers will use AI to become more productive—not less personal. Top 5 Takeaways Bankers who embrace AI will outperform those who don't. AI won't replace relationship bankers—it will make them more valuable by automating administrative work so they can spend more time advising clients, building trust, and growing relationships.Enterprise AI will deliver the biggest ROI. Beyond productivity tools like Copilot, the greatest value will come from transforming core banking functions such as loan underwriting, covenant monitoring, treasury management, customer service, compliance, and fraud detection.AI should follow strategy—not hype. Banks need a clear roadmap with measurable business outcomes before deploying AI, prioritizing high-volume, repetitive processes where automation improves efficiency and reduces operational risk.Governance and training are critical for success. Effective AI adoption requires executive oversight, employee education, strong security controls, and clear policies to ensure AI is used safely, responsibly, and effectively.Economic uncertainty rewards disciplined execution. Amid volatility in interest rates, inflation, and global markets, banks that stay focused on long-term strategy while investing thoughtfully in technology will be best positioned for growth.

    Chris Nichols! Bankers that Want to Improve...with AI!

    Future Tech Banker is hosted by Alec Crawford, Eric Cook, and Jack Hubbard. Together, they bring deep experience in banking, digital strategy, risk, business development, and industry leadership. The podcast explores the trends, technologies, and ideas shaping the future of community banking, with conversations focused on innovation, growth, leadership, customer experience, and the future of the industry. This podcast is sponsored by Verapath (www.verapath.com), WSI, and Saint Meyer & Hubbard. In this episode of Future Tech Banker, Jack Hubbard (and belatedly Eric Cook) sit down with Chris Nichols, President of Institutional Banking at SouthState Bank, joined by marketing and AI expert Eric Cook, to explore how artificial intelligence is reshaping banking. The conversation moves beyond basic AI use cases and examines what separates banks that will thrive from those that may struggle to survive in the next few years. Chris argues that AI is not simply a productivity tool—it is a strategic imperative that will fundamentally change customer relationships, employee effectiveness, marketing, sales, treasury management, and banking operations. The discussion highlights how leading banks are moving from simple chatbots and copilots toward enterprise-wide AI strategies focused on creating better customer experiences, empowering employees, and freeing bankers to spend more time doing what humans do best: building trust and relationships. Top 5 Takeaways1. Your AI strategy should be to become more human. The winning banks will not use AI to replace human relationships—they will use AI to eliminate administrative work, automate routine tasks, and free bankers to spend more time with customers. As Chris Nichols put it, every bank should be asking: How can we use AI to become more authentically human where it matters most? 2. If your employees are not using AI today, your bank may not be around in three years. Chris warned that the divide between banks that embrace AI and those that don't will become obvious very quickly. Organizations that prevent employees from experimenting with AI risk falling dramatically behind competitors that are actively training and enabling their teams. 3. The biggest opportunities are beyond the basics. Many organizations are still focused on meeting summaries, email drafting, and simple productivity gains. The next wave of value comes from AI-powered customer intelligence, treasury management, credit underwriting, onboarding, sales enablement, marketing personalization, fraud detection, and enterprise-wide process redesign. 4. AI creates confidence, not just efficiency. One of the most overlooked benefits is employee confidence. AI helps bankers prepare for customer conversations, role-play sales scenarios, gather insights, and understand customer needs. Better-informed employees are more confident employees, which leads to better customer outcomes. 5. Banks must balance governance with innovation. Regulators increasingly expect banks to have documented AI governance, training, policies, and oversight. However, the risk of doing nothing may now be as significant as the risk of adopting AI. Successful institutions will thoughtfully manage AI risk while aggressively pursuing AI-driven opportunities. https://www.linkedin.com/in/cknichols/https://southstatecorrespondent.com/banking-insights/https://southstatecorrespondent.com/podcast/chris-nichols-on-the-future-of-payments/https://southstatecorrespondent.com/podcast/the-top-12-winning-strategies-for-community-banks-in-2025-with-chris-nichols-and-ed-kofman/https://www.linkedin.com/in/jackrants/https://smandh.com/staff/jack-hubbard/https://smandh.com/https://southstatecorrespondent.com/podcast/helping-your-lenders-succeed-with-jack-hubbard/https://www.poweredbywsi.com https://www.verapath.com Copyright (c) 2026 by Artificial Intelligence Risk, Inc.
