Why it’s worth going
As artificial intelligence and technology reshape both government and business, finance and accounting students need to understand how these changes affect regulatory frameworks, corporate governance, and risk management. Understanding the broader societal implications of technology helps students think critically about fintech, algorithmic trading, automated auditing, and other technology-driven changes in their field. This talk provides a humanistic perspective on technological change that complements technical business training.
Going in prepared
Arrive at Desautels Hall by 5:30 p.m. when the talk begins. The event runs for one hour, concluding at 6:30 p.m. Consider how the themes of artificial intelligence and state power might connect to financial regulation, digital currencies, or the future of accounting systems. Prepare questions that bridge the speaker’s insights with your finance or accounting interests.
