Citi announced the appointment of David Griffiths as group head of AI.
“As AI continues to transform how we serve clients and run the firm, this move brings clearer focus and acceleration to our AI strategy by unifying our end-to-end AI operating model across business and technology,” Chief Operating Officer Anand Selva said in a May 5 LinkedIn post.
