They will pretty much have to at some point. With such a massive amount of data like credit scoring, it's so much easier just to train a neural network to categorize everyone. There's so much more they could pick up on with machine learning than by hand also.

I don't think you can do this. this is a serious request. he may be very angry to hear this news for the banks. but if it does it would be great.

I agree with @yokosan. this would be a big blow for the banks. you will be prompted for authentication to secure the loan. banks that we are able to do.
authentication is important in a different way from credit provide.
