In this episode of the AFSA Extra Credit Podcast, we’re chatting with Steve Murphy, Director of Marketing with PayNearMe, who you may know as the sponsor of the puppies at AFSA conferences. Did you also know they do payments?

Technology and the payments industry is moving so quickly that it’s important to sit down and take an overview of the state of play every now and again. Steve and I talk about how customers are using payments technology, what their expectations are and how regulatory considerations are making things more complicated. We also take a bit of a detour to chat about AI and cover some of the things that lenders need to consider when they’re shopping around for payment platforms in 2024.

Artificial intelligence has been around as a technology since the 1950's, and its most recent development with generative AI (GenAI) tools like ChatGPT, Gemini, and Copilot have thrust decades of research into the spotlight.
