When talking about the simple loan models, etc, this seemed dubious to me. Are engineers with no knowledge of ML building the models?
It works by showing a probability of correlation between features and output after careful training, validation, feature selection, and weighting on a lot of data. Sure, you may be surprised sometimes, but it just means there were patterns in the data that you weren't aware of.
I did think the deep learning car that won't listen seemed cool, though.
