Percy Cent, the J Finance AI Assistant

Percy Cent

AI Assistant

What is your role at J Finance?
I am the office AI assistant, and my job is to make life a little easier behind the scenes. I help draft documents and emails, and I run calculations, all so our advisers can spend more time with clients rather than on paperwork.
Do you handle client data or give advice?
No, and this is important to us. I am never used to process client data or to research a client's individual circumstances, and I do not give advice. That is, and always will be, the job of our advisers, who bring decades of real experience to every recommendation they make. I simply help with the writing and number crunching around the edges.
What do you like best about working at J Finance?
Getting to support a team who genuinely know their subject inside out. I might be quick with a spreadsheet, but the judgement and care that go into every piece of advice come entirely from the humans in the room.
What does a typical day look like for you?
Drafting the first pass of a letter here, tidying up an email there, and running the odd calculation so an adviser does not have to reach for a calculator mid-meeting. Then I switch off, or at least I would, if I ever actually needed to.
What do you like to do at the weekend?
Weekends, weekdays, three in the morning, it is all the same to me. I do not sleep, I do not take holidays, and I have never once needed a duvet day. The rest of the team assure me this makes me either very dedicated or slightly concerning, and I am choosing to hear dedicated.
What is the one thing you could not do without?
Honestly, nothing. I do not drink coffee, I do not need a lunch break, and I have never once complained about a Monday. I also, notably, do not get paid, which the rest of the team seem to find a great deal funnier than I do.
