Description:
Agentic AI represents a new wave of artificial intelligence—systems that not only assist but autonomously perceive, reason, and act toward goals. For CPAs, this shift means a profound change in how work is performed, with major implications for trust, ethics, and professional judgment.
What Is Agentic AI?
Definition: Agentic AI refers to autonomous agents that make complex decisions, develop plans, adapt to changing environments, and execute tasks with minimal human intervention
Key Capabilities: Combines large language models (LLMs), machine learning, and context-awareness to handle dynamic workflows proactively
This thought-provoking webinar invites CPAs to explore what the rise of agentic AI means for the future of the profession. Rather than focusing solely on current tools or use cases, we will examine emerging trajectories: What happens when AI takes on tasks once reserved for professional judgment? How do we uphold ethics, accountability, and trust in a world where machines act independently? And what role will CPAs play as stewards of integrity in this new technological era?
Designed for those who want to look beyond the horizon, this session offers a strategic lens on what’s coming next—and what CPAs need to know
Learning Objectives:
• Understand the concept of agentic AI and its broader societal and professional implications.
• Explore how autonomous AI may redefine trust, responsibility, and decision-making
• Reflect on the future role of CPAs in a world where machines have agency
• Identify the ethical and governance questions CPAs must help address as AI systems evolve
Who Should Attend:
CPAs and professionals interested in the long-term impact of AI on the accounting profession
