CPAs have a leadership role to play in this era of disruptive technology. Advancements in artificial intelligence create strategic opportunities for organizations and raise unique ethics challenges for business leaders. In this session, we’ll highlight recent advancements in AI and explore how it can be expected to change our CPA roles. In particular, we’ll evaluate the ethical implications when facing challenging AI-related decisions, by framing these decisions in the context of the requirements of the CPA Code of Professional Conduct.
