## What AI research, patents and partnerships does JPMorgan Chase have?

JPMorgan Chase runs its own AI Research group, which describes its mission as 'advancing discovery in the field of AI in finance, in particular, AI agents' and lists seven focus areas, from AI agents and hybrid reasoning and foundation models for the financial domain to multimodal document processing and AI trust, transparency and safety. Manuela Veloso led it until February 2026; Sumitra Ganesh now heads it. It runs a firmwide Trustworthy AI Center of Excellence (explainability, fairness, robustness, security and privacy) and an AlgoCRYPT Center of Excellence, publishes at venues such as ICLR and ICML, and the JPMorgan Chase & Co. AI Maker Space at Carnegie Mellon opened on November 10, 2021. Patent filings by JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. cover LLM-verified SQL (granted October 2025), private table question-answering (granted April 2026), an AI agent framework and LLM hallucination detection. Named partners: Anthropic (a Project Glasswing launch organization, April 2026), OpenAI (GPT-4 behind IndexGPT, 2024), Nvidia (open-source agent safety, September 2026), OQC and AMD (quantum-AI research, June 2026), and AWS, which ran nearly 1,000 of the bank's applications by end-2024.

## Common questions

### Does JPMorgan Chase have an AI research lab?

Yes. JPMorganChase AI Research focuses on AI in finance, in particular AI agents, with focus areas including foundation models for the financial domain, document processing, synthetic data and AI trust and safety. It was led by Manuela Veloso until February 2026 and is now led by Sumitra Ganesh.

### What AI patents does JPMorgan Chase have?

Filings assigned to JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. include granted patents on verifying SQL queries with large language models (October 2025) and private table question-answering with an LLM (April 2026), and 2026 applications on an AI agent framework, LLM hallucination detection, LLM stock-rating prediction and generative ML for transaction predictions.

### Which AI companies does JPMorgan Chase work with?

Named partners include Anthropic (Project Glasswing launch organization), OpenAI (GPT-4 behind IndexGPT and early LLM Suite), Nvidia (an open-source agent safety effort), OQC and AMD (a London quantum-AI research platform), AWS for cloud, and Ripcord for lockbox robots. LLM Suite is model-agnostic, so no single lab is exclusive.

### What is the JPMorgan AI Maker Space at Carnegie Mellon?

A facility at Carnegie Mellon University, opened on November 10, 2021, where students from engineering, business, fine arts and other disciplines build AI projects with equipment such as a Fetch mobile robot.
