How AI Is Actually Changing Accounting with Dr Mfon Akpan
Update: 2024-10-03
Description
AI isn't new. It's been around since the 50s, going through waves of excitement and funding, then lulls. But now it feels different.
That's why I started this podcast. I talk to people actually building AI - founders, engineers, scientists. Those doing the work.
The goal is simple: show what's really happening in AI.
In this episode, I speak with Dr. Mfon Akpan. He teaches accounting and has worked at several universities. He also helps oversee finances for Fayetteville.
We cover:
- How AI is changing accounting
- Two ways AI reasons: "chain of thought" and "tree of thought"
- Why some AI tools are hard to access
- Problems companies face when trying to use AI
- Why AI tools might get more expensive
Dr. Akpan knows a lot about mixing new tech with old-school fields. He's been teaching and researching for over 10 years.
If you want to understand AI's real impact on business and society, beyond the hype, this conversation is worth your time.
