In this episode of Disruption Interruption, host KJ sits down with Karthik Manimozhi, Chief Growth Officer at MindBridge, to discuss the transformation of finance and auditing through human-centric AI. From the limitations of traditional sampling audits to the promise of AI-driven transparency, Karthik shares insights from his journey as a FinTech entrepreneur and offers a vision for a future where technology and human expertise work hand-in-hand to drive meaningful change in business and society.

 

Key Takeaways:

• [4:00] - The End of Sampling in Audits
  Traditional audit sampling only reviews a small fraction of data, leading to missed issues. AI now enables analysis of 100% of financial data, increasing trust and transparency.
• [10:20] - Human-Centric AI: Augment, Not Replace
  AI should empower people, not replace them. The future is about using AI to solve complex problems and enable small teams to manage massive operations.
• [36:45] - Digital Readiness is Critical
  Only 20% of finance organizations are currently digital-ready; this must reach 50% by 2030 for meaningful change. Upskilling and embracing new technology are essential.
• [29:00] - AI Democratizes Opportunity
  AI is not just for large enterprises—no-code platforms and accessible tools are unlocking value for small businesses and addressing global challenges like education and healthcare.
  
  

Quote of the Show (31:38):
"Artificial intelligence is an Iron Man suit on your conventional systems. You can still keep your data, your processes in the same place, and now you can collate all of them and create that unified view." - Karthik Manimozhi
