Supervised AI Agents as Public CPA Audit Team Members

Overview

Should CPAs in public practice use Agentic AI? How? What should I not do? Join us to review how to use AI to assist in Assurance engagements, including testing internal controls.

Agentic AI (‘Artificial Intelligence’) is rapidly being deployed by leading audit, compliance & finance teams. While AI agents are not yet replacing all of today’s knowledge workers like auditors, accountants & IT security professionals, the knowledge workers that effectively use Agentic AI may soon be replacing those knowledge workers who do not use these tools to drive high quality business growth & scale.

AI is moving beyond automation to become a true teammate, especially in the governance, risk & compliance processes. This session will show how supervised AI agents can work alongside accountants, auditors & IT security professionals to enhance efficiency, consistency & assurance quality.

Of critical importance is training & supervision so that the AI agents accomplish their testing to the intended quality standards. Attendees will leave with a practical view of how AI-powered testing can be applied to both internal & external assurance.
