Accountants view AI as an ally, not a competitor

Partly due to staffing challenges, the accounting industry has embraced AI on a large scale—98% of respondents reporting that they actively use the technology to enhance client service. Additionally, nearly as many (95%) said that adopting new technology is just as important as traditional accounting skills to succeed as an accountant today.


 

“What was surprising was that in contrast to a common narrative, accountants don’t view AI as competition,” Callahan said. “Only 9% of the respondents said they were concerned about AI replacing their job. Instead, they felt that embracing technology would help them boost their efficiency and improve their client service.”
