It's the "UK Matters in Accounting" show, usually going out every Friday to 150 countries and 30,000 accounting practitioners, fintech specialists and influencers in the accountancy, CPA and bookkeeping space. However, in Jan 2023 we are phasing out this show and putting out this content on our sister Success in Accounting Show which hopefully you're already subscribed to.

In today's episode 28, "The Full Impact of Chat GPT and AI in Accounting"

Here is the transcript for this show, generated by Chat GPT with some smart AI prompting questions:

Hello, and welcome to the podcast. In this episode, we will be discussing the impact of Chat GPT, or Generative Pre-training Transformer, on the world of accountants and CPAs.

First, let's define Chat GPT. It's a machine learning model developed by OpenAI that is able to generate human-like text and can be used to assist accountants and CPAs in a variety of tasks.

But how did Chat GPT come about, and why is it making waves in so many industries? Chat GPT was developed by OpenAI, a leading artificial intelligence research lab, as a way to improve natural language processing. It builds upon the concept of pre-training, which involves training a model on a large dataset to recognize patterns and relationships in language. By pre-training a model on a massive amount of text data, it can then be fine-tuned for specific tasks, such as translation or language generation.

The development of Chat GPT marked a significant step forward in the field of natural language processing and has led to its widespread adoption in a variety of industries.

Now, let's dive into how Chat GPT can help accountants and CPAs.

One way it can assist is by generating reports and documents. Imagine having to create a financial report for a client. This can be a time-consuming and tedious task, but with Chat GPT, you can simply input the necessary data and let the model do the rest. It will generate a professional, accurate report in a fraction of the time it would take a human.

Another way Chat GPT can be useful is by providing data analysis. It can be trained to analyze financial data and provide insights and recommendations based on that analysis. This can be especially helpful for accountants and CPAs who are looking to make informed decisions for their clients.

Chat GPT can also be used to automate routine tasks, such as data entry and reconciliation. This can free up time for accountants and CPAs to focus on more complex tasks, improving efficiency and productivity.

Additionally, Chat GPT is still limited in its capabilities and may not be able to handle more complex tasks. Finally, using Chat GPT may create a reliance on technology, and if there are issues with the system, it could disrupt work and cause delays.

Now, let's take a look at some statistics to give you an idea of the potential impact Chat GPT could have on your practice and your clients: According to a recent survey, over 70% of accountants and

CPAs believe that machine learning will significantly change the way they do business in the next 5 years.

Another study found that the use of artificial intelligence in accounting could save up to 400 million hours of manual data entry per year. One company that implemented Chat GPT saw a 25% increase in productivity and a 10% reduction in errors.

These statistics show that Chat GPT has the potential to significantly impact the

As part of this UK Matters in Accounting podcast, we are giving you some bonus episodes on the topic of influence. What is influence? Is it important? How influential are you?

You influence others more than you think. The ability to authentically make people think, act and speak in a certain way is a powerful currency in any environment.

Here at Accounting Influencers, we help amplify the brands, the messaging and the relationships of people who serve the accounting profession. You might be a qualified accountant in practice looking to get things done at work. For that you need credibility, a voice, a reputation.

You could be part of the software industry or fintech ecosystem surrounding accountants, selling your products and services either directly into accountants and firms, or indirectly through them to their clients.

Influence is a big part of the mix. So in this bonus series for the Accounting Influencers Podcast Network, hosts Rob Brown and Martin Bissett discuss the role of influence. And over 12 bonus episodes in the next 4 weeks, you'll get a quick fire overview of the 10 key areas, pillars or components of influence.

By going to https://accountinginfluencers.com and taking the Accounting Influencer Test you can score your influence over these 10 categories. For free.

In this episode, "The Vital Role of Character in Accounting Influence", you'll hear that character speaks to how likeable and trustworthy you are. Do you keep your promises and commitments? Are you easy to work with? Are you agreeable and reliable, or confrontational and a diva?

What are you like with relationships, partnerships, alliances and negotiations? Are you real and authentic, and even a bit vulnerable? Or do you have different faces/personalities for different people? Are you value driven and principled?

Take the test at https://accountinginfluencers.com and see how influential you really are. You'll also get some practical suggestions to increase your influence in your professional role.
