How Can AI and Other Technology Reshape the Accounting Profession? - Video

CEO Jodi Ann Ray of the Texas Society of CPAs doesn’t look at the impact of AI and other technology as anything but a good thing for the accounting profession. She discusses on Paychex THRIVE, a Business Podcast, how AI can streamline tasks to create opportunities for CPAs to elevate their advisory role, help with recruitment to rebuild the talent pipeline, and set the profession up to be more flexible. Jodi also speaks about a continued focus on diversity and inclusion, including women in leadership roles, and the advocacy that the society is doing to update licensure requirements and continuing education.
