AI – Managing Risks, Maximizing Reward

AI is rapidly changing the work of accounting and finance professionals, creating new opportunities to improve efficiency, analysis, and decision support. At the same time, it brings real concerns around accuracy, confidentiality, overreliance, weak controls, and professional responsibility.` This interactive session will help you take a practical, balanced approach to AI adoption. Through realistic examples, case studies, and discussion, you will explore where AI can add meaningful value, where the risks are greatest, and how to distinguish between appropriate uses, higher-risk uses, and uses that demand stronger controls. Do not miss this session if you want to stay current, protect your professional credibility, and make smarter decisions about AI in your work and organization. The accounting and finance professionals who benefit most from AI will be those who know how to balance innovation with sound judgment.
