Abstract
In today’s society, technology is more important than ever, which can be seen on the job markets as well. Artificial intelligence is a technology that is used in different sectors. Within the accounting sector, firms are experimenting with AI, but it is not yet used to take over certain tasks. How can artificial intelligence influence the current accounting activities and how do accountants think about the developments? This paper examines the impact of AI on the efficiency and effectiveness of the current accounting activities. To determine this, a survey was distributed among accountants. The survey was completed by 127 respondents, and the results of this survey were combined with findings from previous research to determine the effect of AI on accounting activities. The findings of this research showed that the use of AI has a positive impact on the accounting efficiency and effectiveness. In this study, the difference in attitude towards the development of AI between different ages and genders were compared as well. The study showed that the different age groups had a similar idea about the developments and use of AI. The male respondents showed a more positive attitude towards the development of AI, compared to the females.
