拉·法尔据即将成为这些员工上司的人士透露，尽管人工智能企业能提供更高的薪酬，仍有“数百名”求职者踊跃申请英国顶级金融监管机构的高级人工智能相关职位。
By Laura Noonan and Isabella Farr“Hundreds” of applicants have thrown their hats in the ring for senior AI jobs at the UK’s top financial regulator, according to the new hires’ future boss, despite the fact that AI companies can pay higher compensation.
杰西卡·鲁苏是英国金融行为监管局的数据信息与人工智能主管。她表示，众多求职者看重的是能在该机构解决“极具挑战性与趣味性”的问题这一机会。
Jessica Rusu, the Financial Conduct Authority’s chief data information and artificial intelligence officer, said candidates valued the opportunity to solve “fascinating and interesting problems” at the FCA.
这位自2021年加入金融行为监管局前曾在私营领域工作逾20年的高管在接受采访时说道：“目前我们正在招聘两个高级管理岗位，收到了数百份质量上乘的求职申请。”
“We have two senior leadership roles in the market now and we have had hundreds of really high quality applications,” the executive, who spent more than 20 years in the private sector before joining the FCA in 2021, said in an interview.
金融行为监管局目前正在招募“自主型人工智能与数据科学研究负责人”，该职位将纳入机构高级管理团队。若在伦敦任职，薪资范围为14万至19万英镑（约合18.6万至25.3万美元）；若在利兹或爱丁堡办公，薪资则为12.6万至17.1万英镑。
The FCA has been advertising for a head of agentic AI and data science research, who will join the organization’s senior leadership team for a salary of between £140,000 and £190,000 ($186,000 and $253,000) in London, or £126,000 to £171,000 if they work from the watchdog’s Leeds or Edinburgh offices.
该机构同时也在招聘“人工智能与技术安全运营部门主管”，薪资水平与此相当。这两个职位的招聘申请已于近期截止。
The regulator is also hiring a head of department, AI and technology security operations within the same salary range. Both roles recently closed for applications.
此举正是金融行为监管局致力于成为全球人工智能监管典范的重要举措——既包括自身对人工智能技术的合理运用，也涵盖对其所监管的35,500家企业的技术使用情况进行监督。
It’s part of the FCA’s goal to become a global leader in AI regulation, both through its own use of the technology and its oversight of usage across the 35,500 firms it supervises.
周一，鲁苏在伦敦举行的一场彭博社活动中透露，为履行2028年起生效的新监管职责，金融行为监管局正研发人工智能工具，用以对另外6万家企业的反洗钱措施实施监管。此外，该机构还利用自动化及自主型人工智能系统来监督约9,000家小型批发市场交易报告企业。
Rusu told a Bloomberg event in London on Monday that the FCA was building AI tools to help oversee anti-money laundering controls at 60,000 extra firms, as part of a new duty that comes into effect from 2028. It’s also using automatic and agentic AI agents to help supervise around 9,000 small wholesale market transaction-reporting firms.
英国金融行为监管局正在密切监测金融服务业对人工智能技术的应用情况，并倡导行业采取良好实践。在活动现场，鲁苏呼吁各企业“通过清晰、适度且连贯的免责声明，帮助消费者了解由人工智能模型生成的金融信息与建议的局限性”。该监管机构还正与各企业携手应对网络安全挑战以及人工智能带来的潜在风险；今年早些时候，Anthropic公司新推出的Mythos模型就曾引发诸多安全方面的担忧。
The FCA is monitoring the financial services industry’s use of AI and encouraging good practices. At the event, Rusu called for firms “to help consumers understand the limits of financial information and advice generated by their models through clear, proportionate and consistent disclaimers.”The regulator is also working with firms on cyber defenses and the potential risks from AI, as highlighted by the security concerns around Anthropic’s new Mythos model earlier this year.
“人工智能的发展速度远远超出了现有监管框架的适应速度，”鲁苏指出，“这意味着监管机构今后将越来越多地需要在缺乏先例可循的情况下作出判断，同时必须确保信任始终是金融服务业的核心要素。”
“AI is moving faster than any regulatory framework was designed,” Rusu said. “That means regulators will increasingly need to make judgments without precedent, while ensuring that trust remains at the heart of financial services.”
鲁苏还表示，倘若英国金融行为监管局拥有无限资源，“我们定会全力打击各类金融犯罪行为”。她补充道，目前借助人工智能实施的欺诈行为正日益增多，比如利用深度伪造视频来诱导人们参与虚假投资项目。“这类行为严重阻碍了行业的健康发展。”
If the FCA had unlimited resources, Rusu said, “we would go after more and more financial crime.”The regulator is seeing a rise in AI-enabled fraud, such as deep fake videos encouraging fake investment opportunities, she added. “It really undermines growth.”
