Karima Benhaoues, Karim Belaid

Abstract


This study aims to evaluate the use of artificial intelligence technologies in the accounting field, emphasizing its importance in enhancing work quality and thoroughly examining the most significant impacts of this technology on the Algerian environment. To achieve the desired objectives, professionals were interviewed through a structured questionnaire distributed to 50 individuals. The obtained opinions were carefully analyzed, and the study hypotheses were tested using the SPSS V23 statistical package. Several key conclusions were yielded in the study, the most notable being that artificial intelligence (AI) technology provides essential support to accountants and external auditors, enabling them to transition away from routine tasks. Furthermore, AI significantly contributes to professional development by facilitating new experiences and skills acquisition that expedite the efficient completion of duties and functions. Compared to traditional methodologies, AI-enhanced accounting and auditing software also facilitates the detection of significant risks by enabling AI technology to process and analyze substantial volumes of complex financial data.
