“Every CFO tells me nowadays they have a great controller ... but the question is, can AI replace a controller one day? No. But will CFOs and controllers who use AI replace the ones who don’t? Yes.”
Jack McCullough, president of the CFO Leadership Council, spoke extensively about AI’s furthering impact on finance during his opening remarks at CFO Brew’s event in New York City today. According to him, contrary to recent data from CFO and others, AI will continue to be the most impactful thing for finance leaders and their teams moving forward.
“The pace of change [for technology] is so quick today. Six months in 2024 is five years in 2015.”
