How Human Centric AI will Impact the World of Audit
Speaker: Robin Grosset, CTO Mindbridge
Artificial Intelligence helps auditors by teaching us something new, by shedding human bias and amplifying our ability to understand vast amounts of data. The challenge is in embracing AI solutions that work with humans, not against them, by engendering trust, building in intelligible explanations, and ensuring non-technical people can understand what the system is saying. In other words, the AI should be human-centric.
