Wall Street banks are investing heavily in artificial intelligence (AI), reshaping the nature of work and the structure of power on the financial market. JPMorgan Chase, the nation's biggest bank, is focusing on becoming an early AI adopter with a $20 billion annual technology budget.

The bank tracks employee AI usage through a dashboard, categorizing developers as light, heavy, or non-users. JPMorgan has also updated engineer objectives to emphasize AI adoption.
Goldman Sachs has allocated $6 billion to technology this year, though CEO David Solomon wishes it were $8 billion. He urged interns to experiment with AI tools to enhance team workflows. The bank is launching an in-house AI platform called Proxy IQ to replace external advisors for shareholder voting. Citi is prioritizing employee buy-in over granular AI usage metrics, aiming for 90% of employees to use AI tools.
