Sentence 70

Before

Banks and other financial institutions will be able to leverage this trend to expedite everyday functions such as payment processing by basing identity confirmation on bionic sensors and plotting information derived from sensor-laden, AI-enabled hand-held devices.
After

Financial institutions will be able to expedite everyday functions such as payment processing. They can use bionic sensors for identity confirmation and AI-enabled hand-held devices to plot information.

Notes:
The 'before' version is too verbose. I have broken the snetence into two.

"will be able to leverage this trend" is unnecessary information, so I have removed it to shorten the sentence.
