AI (pronounced AYE-EYE) or artificial intelligence is
the simulation of human intelligence processes by
machines, especially computer systems. These
processes include learning (the acquisition of
information and rules for using the information),
reasoning (using the rules to reach approximate or
definite conclusions), and self-correction. Particular
applications of AI include expert systems, speech
recognition and machine vision

As with most notable transitions related to an industry or role,
technology is rising to support this strategic shift. The real value
of this technology is in enabling CFOs to analyze data in more
meaningful ways. Built for the cloud, solutions are architected
from the ground up to capture more than traditional accounting
transactions. They capture a broad set of financial and non-
financial data and present insights via modern real-time
dashboards. These dashboards may have KPIs, charts, reports,
lists and even social feeds for analyzing the most important
metrics to an organization’s success.
Of course, all this insight is worthless if the CFO is mired in daily
accounting operations and can’t get free to analyze the business.
CFOs adopt cloud solutions knowing they’ll see the monthly close
process continuously shrink, freeing up hours, days or even weeks
of time.
