AI Tools for Actuaries

Abstract

There are many different initiatives that aim at upskilling the actuarial profession in data science and AI related subjects. The aim of these notes is to give a comprehensive set of lecture notes and teaching material to this effect. To help to define its scope, we have taken the proposals of the actuarial profession to develop our own view on what the profession should be familiar with in this field, and these lecture notes are the result of this process. Since data science, machine learning and AI are vastly evolving fields, we expect that the emphasis given to the different subjects in this field will change over time, and similarly these lecture notes should evolve. These lecture notes only contain a limited number of (explicit) examples. In parallel we develop comprehensive notebooks that provide explicit data examples and code to the theory presented in these notes.
