So… AI won’t take anyone’s job, any time soon.
But it may provide you with a bunch of new
artificial colleagues.
![Page 27: Artificial Intelligence for Accounting and Auditing · 2019-07-03 · reason, plan, solve problems, think abstractly, comprehend complex ideas, learn quickly and learn from experience](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042709/5f4650429bc45c42ca5d62da/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Let’s make sure though,
that your new artificial colleague
is actually intelligent
Can we define a Turing test
for the accounting and auditing domain?
