Today I’m debating Samuel Green, UK Partnership Account Executive of Employment Hero on AI vs the human touch in accounting at the Festival of Accountants and Bookkeepers

- Smith argues the human touch is crucial for customer service and empathy while Green emphasises AI's potential for efficiency and insights  

- Both agree AI can streamline repetitive tasks but human oversight is still needed

- Attendees question how AI will evolve and what to consider when choosing software

- Smith encourages evaluating long-term roadmaps and support while Green discusses AI use cases at Employment Hero

- They find consensus that selective AI use can enhance but not replace the human experience in client relationships
