7. AUDITORS USE AI TO TACKLE ACCOUNTING FRAUD
Accounting fraud has long eaten into the
revenue of some businesses, but auditors are
enlisting a new defensive tool: artificial
intelligence.
A typical organization can lose 5 percent of
its annual revenue to fraud, according to an
estimate from the Association of Certified
Fraud Examiners. Businesses are putting AI on
the task of anomaly detection in an effort to
staunch losses.

8. RISK MANAGERS CAN ASSESS AND LIMIT RISK IN M&A WITH AI
A company that has joined another is almost
always saddled with data that’s not so easy to
organize and categorize. Most obviously, GPUs
bring speed to the equation – and speeding up the
process translates to identifying — and mitigating
— risks sooner.
“We’re just trying to give users a tool to learn
about data,” said Jonathan Bailey, vice president
of analytics at Congruity360. “We want to see if
there’s any risky data in there.”

9. RESEARCHERS DEVELOP AI SYSTEM THAT PROCESSES SOUND
LIKE HUMANS
The method, which is the first model of its
kind, can replicate listening tasks such as
identifying a musical genre or identifying
words. The researchers built the model to
shed light on how the human brain may be
performing listening tasks.
The hope is that it’s learning something
general, so if you present a new sound that
the model has never heard before, it will do
well, and in practice that is often the case.
