The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB) warned lenders using artificial intelligence (AI) in credit denials that consumers must receive accurate and specific reasoning—and not checklists—for why a credit request was denied.
In a press release Tuesday, the agency said, “[C]reditors cannot simply use CFPB sample adverse action forms and checklists if they do not reflect the actual reason for the denial of credit or a change of credit conditions.”
