FAQ

How does AI Answers work?

AI Answers is a generative AI search experience trained on American Banker's editorial archive – no external sources are included in training. Ask questions in natural language; you'll receive a summarized answer accompanied by links to the specific stories that informed it.

Can I trust the answers?

Our answers draw only on journalism produced by American Banker. We've tested extensively to improve quality, and every response includes source links so you can verify. If the system doesn't have enough information, it will tell you rather than guess.

Does AI create American Banker's editorial content?

No. Editorial articles are written and edited by our newsroom. Those articles inform AI Answers; the tool is not used to generate newsroom content.

What can non-subscribers do?

Non-subscribers can run one example search to understand capabilities. Full, unrestrained research is reserved for subscribers.

What data does AI Answers collect?

We record queries and collect anonymized usage data to understand reader interests and improve the experience. See the American Banker Privacy Policy and our technology partner's policy for details.

Where is this available?

AI Answers is live on American Banker for paid subscribers.
