Summary
Accounting is an enduring profession, one that's already reinvented itself from ledgers to spreadsheets. AI is only the next entry. CPA Australia NSW Divisional Council is bringing you a night to make sense of it, no jargon required.
Join Ella Pyman and Dan Feldman from Quantium, one of Australia's leading AI and data science firms, for a practical, hands-on look at what AI means for accountants right now and where it's heading next. We'll cover two topics: how you can start using AI tools in your day-to-day work, and how to think about strategic uses of AI that have genuine impact at a team or organisation-wide level.
Expect live demos, real examples, and honest conversation about the opportunities (and the ethical questions) AI raises for the profession. Plus, a few takeaways you can put into practice the moment you get home.
Whether you're AI-curious or already experimenting, there's something here for you.
