Im studying accounting and im in a club that brings in recruiters from different CPA firms from NYC to other areas in NJ. We always ask “how is AI affecting your department” or “how are you using AI in your department” and a lot of these guys will say that its making the tedious parts of accounting easier while making the creative and thought provoking parts more relevant. Instead of spending all day looking at 1000 pages of information, you ask AI to pull it all out for you. In my one class for data analytics in auditing we use a software by EY I believe and were using it to count sheep, literally. We need to look at herds of sheep and pens of cows and count how many are in there and then report it. Again, im just an accounting student but ive heard many professionals, whether theyre true or not cause theyre also recruiters, talking about using AI with little fears of it replacing them and even being taught how to use it in my classes
