I mean, I believe this job will be extinct by 2030 as artificial intelligence (AI) will take over human roles.

The function is basically to organize companies and manage their expenses. With a robot, you can do all of this for free.

Accountants and auditors will soon encounter more demanding challenges in managing AI accounting software compared to the existing issues of accounting staff shortages. Their responsibilities will expand beyond just examining, analyzing, and interpreting accounting records to managing, evaluating, auditing, and certifying the inputs and outputs of AI accounting software. This shift will significantly increase their workload and require them to oversee the implementation, development, and maintenance of AI accounting software.

Consequently, the assistance of bookkeeping, accounting, and auditing clerks will still be necessary for accountants and auditors to manage AI accounting software effectively. Clerks' understanding of accounting principles and attention to detail makes them ideal for this task. However, the future of clerical roles is expected to involve ongoing learning and expanding responsibilities, as these professionals will need to enhance their knowledge in Accounting, Auditing, and Artificial Intelligence (AI) to assist accountants and auditors in their new duties of managing, assessing, auditing, and certifying the inputs and outputs associated with AI accounting software.

In the evolving landscape of accounting and auditing, the focus for Accountants and Auditors is shifting towards continuous monitoring and auditing of AI-generated financial data. This transition will see Accounting and Auditors Clerks taking on a more supportive role in evaluating the financial data produced by AI systems.

While the current integration of AI and digital tools is not as widespread as it will be in the future, the workload on Accountants and Auditors already surpasses their current capacity. As AI systems become more prevalent, the task of overseeing the increasing volume of financial data they generate will become even more demanding. AI and digitization have the potential to capture a significantly higher number of financial transactions compared to the present scenario. Consequently, Accountants will increasingly focus on auditing AI’s inputs and outputs, necessitating their clerks to enhance their support to streamline these processes effectively.

i am a web developer and i can easily think of several ways to automate the type of repetitive tasks that these professionals perform. add now chatgpt to the equation to add more "laguange human-like skills" and there you have it.

Blockchain + AI like ChatGPT, Google Bard, etc will make this role obsolete for sure. This role is so 1800s and manual labor right now. Also this is prone to human error at the moment. An AI system will solve this.

Jobs that are routine and hardly have any creative or interpersonal demands are most at risk of being automated.

We calculate this occupation to have an automation risk score of 100% (You are doomed)

And yet I seem to be getting more clients.

I understand the logic and I don't disagree with it -- but that doesn't seem to be the way it's shaking out.

Computer technology, the internet, and software are ever-improving. Small business classes commonly teach basic bookkeeping, and software is becoming easier to use while doing more. As time goes by, I expect software to be able to do even more than it does now and to be even easier to use, possibly with AI in the future.
