"Have you noticed the increase in conversation around artificial intelligence, more commonly known as AI? Technology is constantly evolving and it's important to stay up-to-date with the latest advancements to avoid falling behind. What does this mean for accounting practices? First and foremost, don't panic. AI will not take over your job as an accountant. CPAs will always be needed. The human element is something AI just can't provide. However, AI can be beneficial to your practice. Some of the benefits of utilizing AI include automated data entry, anomaly detection, real-time financial insights, improved compliance and risk management, enhanced data analysis and reporting, increased efficiency and accuracy, cost savings, and more. So, before writing off the usage of AI, you might want to look into it to see how it can help you and your practice."
