While AI may improve data entry, it still lacks the judgment required for tax code decisions, loan splits, fixed assets, and meaningful financial analysis.

In this Season 8 opener, our resident Bookkeeping Mensch, Paul Rosenblum, explores how artificial intelligence is beginning to influence the bookkeeping profession. But the bigger issue is structural. Pricing for bookkeeping services varies wildly, certifications are inconsistent, and banks feed transaction data into accounting systems without standardized formatting. As AI becomes more integrated into tools like QuickBooks, these inconsistencies are becoming harder to ignore.

If the role of the bookkeeper is shifting from data entry to review, explanation, and advisory work, then standards, accreditation, and clearer industry expectations may need to evolve alongside it. Do you agree or disagree? Let Paul know. Contact details are below.
