«Η εφαρμογή της Τεχνητής Νοημοσύνης στις ελληνικές επιχειρήσεις ως εργαλείο χρηματοοικονομικής διοίκησης. Μελετη περίπτωσης: η Τεχνητή Νοημοσύνη στον τραπεζικό τομέα.»

Ήδη από το 1956 η έννοια της Τεχνητής Νοημοσύνης εξελίσσεται με ραγδαίους ρυθμούς ενώ σήμερα,, βαδίζοντας ήδη στην τέταρτη βιομηχανική επανάσταση, η έννοια αποκτάει μια νέα μορφή, εκπνέοντας έναν νέο κλίμα σε επίπεδο οικονομικής και κοινωνικής εξέλιξης. Αναντίρρητα, η εμφάνιση και η δυναμικότητα της ακόμα αξιολογείται, παρόλα αυτά είναι άρρηκτα συνδεδεμένη με τον ανθρώπινο παράγοντα. Κάθε επιχείρηση ανεξαρτήτου μεγέθους, έχει την δυνατότητα να ενσωματώσει αυτές τις τεχνολογίες αιχμής με σκοπό να διευκολύνει, να αναβαθμίζει και να εξασφαλίσει την ανταγωνιστικότητα και την βιωσιμότητά της. Μέσα σε αυτό το κλίμα, η συγκεκριμένη εργασία αναλαμβάνει να λάβει πληροφορίες για την χρήση των συστημάτων τεχνητής νοημοσύνης στον τραπεζικό κλάδο, ενώ παράλληλα να εστιάσει και στην συμπεριφορά και στις αντιλήψεις των υπαλλήλων σχετικά με την χρήση της. Μέσα από πληθώρα ενεργειών ο τραπεζικός κλάδος έχει ήδη αναπτύξει τα συστήματα για την παρακολούθηση κινήσεων, για τον έγκαιρο έλεγχο δολίων κινήσεων, καλύτερη εξυπηρέτηση πελατών και φυσικά υπόσχεται ένα κλίμα ομαλής συνεργασίας και επικοινωνίας. Η εξισορρόπηση ανάμεσα στην χρήση της Τεχνητής Νοημοσύνης και τον παραδοσιακό τρόπο επιτυγχάνεται μέσα από τις κατάλληλες ενέργειες, αλλά και την κατάρριψη των μειονεκτημάτων που προσφέρει η χρήση της. Σκοπός της εργασίας είναι να παρουσιαστεί η σχέση που έχει αναπτυχθεί και εξελιχθεί ανάμεσα στους ανθρώπους-επιχειρήσεις και στην τεχνητή νοημοσύνη σε ένα υποσύνολο των επιχειρήσεων, τον τραπεζικό κλάδο. Στόχος είναι η εξαγωγή πολύτιμων συμπερασμάτων, ώστε κάθε ο αναγνώστης ή ερευνητής να το θεωρήσει ένα πολύτιμο πληροφοριακό εργαλείο για περαιτέρω έρευνα και ανάπτυξη.Since 1956, the concept of Artificial Intelligence has evolved rapidly. Today, in the fourth industrial revolution, the concept is taking a new form, triggering a new climate in terms of economic and social development. Undoubtedly, its appearance and potential are still being evaluated, but it is inseparable from the human factor. Every company, regardless of its size, has the opportunity to integrate these cutting-edge technologies to facilitate, improve and ensure its competitiveness and sustainability. Against this backdrop, this paper seeks to obtain information on the use of artificial intelligence systems in the banking sector, focusing on employee behavior and perceptions of their use. By a variety of measures, the banking sector has already developed systems for monitoring transactions, timely control of fraudulent transactions, better customer service and, of course, a climate of smooth collaboration and communication. The balance between the use of artificial intelligence and the traditional way is achieved through the appropriate measures, but also by overcoming the disadvantages that its use entails. The goal of this paper is to present the relationship between humans and artificial intelligence in a subset of companies, the banking sector. The goal is to draw valuable conclusions so that any reader or researcher can consider it a valuable information tool for further research and development

From holism to compositionality: memes and the evolution of segmentation, syntax, and signification in music and language

Steven Mithen argues that language evolved from an antecedent he terms “Hmmmmm, [meaning it was] Holistic, manipulative, multi-modal, musical and mimetic”. Owing to certain innate and learned factors, a capacity for segmentation and cross-stream mapping in early Homo sapiens broke the continuous line of Hmmmmm, creating discrete replicated units which, with the initial support of Hmmmmm, eventually became the semantically freighted words of modern language. That which remained after what was a bifurcation of Hmmmmm arguably survived as music, existing as a sound stream segmented into discrete units, although one without the explicit and relatively fixed semantic content of language. All three types of utterance – the parent Hmmmmm, language, and music – are amenable to a memetic interpretation which applies Universal Darwinism to what are understood as language and musical memes. On the basis of Peter Carruthers’ distinction between ‘cognitivism’ and ‘communicativism’ in language, and William Calvin’s theories of cortical information encoding, a framework is hypothesized for the semantic and syntactic associations between, on the one hand, the sonic patterns of language memes (‘lexemes’) and of musical memes (‘musemes’) and, on the other hand, ‘mentalese’ conceptual structures, in Chomsky’s ‘Logical Form’ (LF)

A Memetic Analysis of a Phrase by Beethoven: Calvinian Perspectives on Similarity and Lexicon-Abstraction

This article discusses some general issues arising from the study of similarity in music, both human-conducted and computer-aided, and then progresses to a consideration of similarity relationships between patterns in a phrase by Beethoven, from the first movement of the Piano Sonata in A flat major op. 110 (1821), and various potential memetic precursors. This analysis is followed by a consideration of how the kinds of similarity identified in the Beethoven phrase might be understood in psychological/conceptual and then neurobiological terms, the latter by means of William Calvin’s Hexagonal Cloning Theory. This theory offers a mechanism for the operation of David Cope’s concept of the lexicon, conceived here as a museme allele-class. I conclude by attempting to correlate and map the various spaces within which memetic replication occurs

Registering the 'Eroica'

This chapter explores register in the outer movements of the ‘Eroica’ Symphony. Engaging closely with Schenker’s 1930 analysis, in which the two-line register is understood as the obligate Lage while the three-line octave is treated as essentially decorative or reinforcing, it argues to the contrary, asserting the structural significance of the latter. By paying particular attention to Beethoven’s scoring for the flute, it develops a narrative of registral ‘failure’ in the finale that is in stark contrast to the standard ‘heroic’ readings of this work
