#92 Advanced Fraud Solutions Leadership with Ted Josephson Pt. 2: AI Automation, and What’s Coming

What is up fraud fighters, and welcome to Fraud Forward! AI is accelerating fraud, 100 percent. But the bigger risk, the thing that should keep every fraud leader up at night, is what happens when fraud teams stop thinking strategically because the queue never ends. In Part 2 of Fraud Forward, I’m back with Ted Josephson, VP of Bank Fraud & Credit Strategy at Synchrony Financial, and we are getting into fraud leadership at the enterprise level, where strategy, AI, automation, and culture collide. Because let me just assure you, fraud prevention at scale requires more than tools. It requires fraud leadership strategies, fraud team leadership that protects time for long-term planning, and strategic fraud solutions that can separate normal fraud noise from the signals of a true fraud shift. Then we get direct about AI. Where it’s delivering real value today, where the industry is still overhyping “AI” that is not actually learning, and why certain decisions, especially first-party fraud, should never be fully automated without human accountability and empathy. And fraud fighters, we close with what Ted thinks is being underestimated right now, and it’s big. Agentic commerce creating a new accountability and disputes nightmare, plus the rise of casual “friendly fraud” as a cultural norm. Because fraud prevention evolution is not just a technology program, it is bank fraud leadership and credit risk leadership in action. This is fraud prevention innovation, and it demands strategic fraud decisions.
