Abstract

The integration of cloud computing and artificial intelligence (AI) has significantly transformed actuarial science, particularly in life insurance pricing models. Traditional actuarial methods, often limited by static assumptions and computational constraints, are being replaced by dynamic, data-driven approaches that incorporate real-time customer behavior and external variables. AI-powered tools enable advanced risk assessment and predictive analytics, while cloud platforms provide scalable infrastructure for processing large datasets efficiently. This paper explores the evolution of actuarial models, highlighting the role of AI and cloud technologies in enhancing pricing accuracy, operational efficiency, and customer satisfaction. Key challenges, including data quality, ethical considerations, and regulatory compliance, are also discussed, alongside emerging trends and future opportunities. By addressing these challenges, the insurance industry can unlock the full potential of AI and cloud innovations, paving the way for more personalized and equitable insurance solutions.
