<![CDATA[The development of digital technology, especially Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning (ML), has significantly changed the accounting profession from manual work to more efficient and accurate process automation. This automation allows accountants to focus on data analysis and strategic decision-making, but also requires mastery of new digital skills such as data analytics and basic programming.
