I'm back with an expert-packed panel to explore the intersection of technology and the accounting industry. In this episode, the panel discusses various topics centering on AI and the emergence of ChatGPT.

We dive into the importance of gender-neutral pronouns in the tech space to foster inclusivity and diversity in accounting. We evaluate the accuracy of ChatGPT and highlight its strengths and limitations for accounting tasks. If you're looking for practical strategies to help you utilize this emerging technology in your accounting practice, look no further!

The panel speculates on the future of the accounting profession, considering whether AI and automation could replace us. The truth is that AI may replace some jobs in the field; adaptability and upskilling are crucial for staying relevant.
