accounting arc
with liz mason, byron patrick, and donny shimamoto
center for accounting transformation

artificial intelligence is not replacing accountants; it is replacing the parts of accounting that accountants least want to do. that is the consensus of liz mason, cpa; byron patrick, cpa.citp, cgma; and donny shimamoto, cpa.citp, cgma, who devote the latest accounting arc to reframing ai as an accelerant for professional judgment rather than a threat to jobs.

patrick, ceo of verifyiq and founder and instructor for tb academy, begins with a familiar refrain from social media: ai will put accountants out of business. mason, ceo of high rock accounting, answers with little patience. if a practitioner’s value is “typing numbers into a screen,” she says, then replacement is inevitable. the hosts argue that firms win when they let technology handle the typing and redeploy human time to analysis, communication, and decision support.
