The Fraud Solution Opportunity Waiting on IBM Z
IBM has spent years building the ability to run AI inside one of the world's most important transaction-processing environments. Telum and Telum II put model inference close to the applications and data on which consequential financial decisions depend. That is a substantial engineering achievement, but it is not yet the full commercial opportunity. The runtime makes it possible to execute models in the transaction path. The greater prize is the fraud solution built around it, the models, behavioral features, decision logic and workflows that let institutions prevent more fraud rather than merely run more inference.
