<p>Artificial intelligence is everywhere, but not all AI is created equal. In this episode of the Weekly AI Update, David Lykken sits down with Jennifer from Angel AI and Celligents to explore the difference between AI hype and true mortgage intelligence. Their conversation dives into what it really takes to build an AI system capable of performing meaningful work in a highly regulated industry, from decades of engineering and proprietary lending data to the disciplined culture required to create technology that borrowers, loan officers, and lenders can trust. They discuss the emerging definition of Artificial General Intelligence (AGI), why most AI solutions are little more than wrappers around large language models, and how purpose-built AI is transforming mortgage origination, compliance, risk management, and operational efficiency. If you're curious about where AI is truly creating value in financial services—and where the industry is headed next—this is a conversation you won't want to miss.</p>
