Scope

• Square is banking on AI and ML techniques to utilize data that it collects from its services and businesses. It uses ML models such as credit algorithms to analyse the transaction data of small businesses that use Square to collect payments and determine loan eligibility. Square has deployed machine learning across risk management, sales, marketing, analytics, and customer support.
• Most of Square's applications run on its data center, with the company is focusing on migrating these applications to the cloud. Square's Platform and Infrastructure Engineering team, which provides the infrastructure and tooling required to operate in the datacenter, is exploring cloud-hosting opportunities.
• Square's increasing investment in cryptocurrencies is in line with its strategy to become part of the global monetary system, to develop products driving financial inclusion. In December 2021, Square Inc. changed its name to Block Inc. to further enhance its focus on cryptocurrencies and rebranded its Square Crypto as Spiral.
