Ninety percent of our webinar audience said new hires will need AI and data analytics skills. Two panelists challenged the data analytics part: AI agents can do that. The real skill is knowing how to ask the right questions.
In part 4 of AI & Accountants 2026, moderated by Nancy Chakabuda, Vice President of CAW Network USA, the panel unpacks:
• Campbell Robertson on knowledge workers becoming intuition workers, and how rewarding "token maxing" left some Silicon Valley organizations paying more for AI than for the person they'd have hired
• Chris Easton on building an agent to control the agents, and splitting third-party risk management into around 200 tasks with known token costs
• Jannie Wentzel on why a general model gives general answers, and turning your follow-up questions into a reusable prompt
• Why change management is the hard part: "50 roadblocks" to connecting AI to SAP, and shadow AI when staff aren't trained
• Closing advice: Campbell on "cognitive impact" and a human fallback if AI fails at month-end, Jannie on "don't be afraid," and Chris on defining the opportunity
Essential listening for accountants putting AI to work without losing control. That's a wrap on the series — watch the full webinar at cawnetworkusa.com.
