Artificial intelligence (AI), big data analytics, and cybersecurity are rapidly transforming the modern audit profession. This paper examines how AI-driven machine learning models enhance fraud detection, automate transaction recording, and enable the analysis of unstructured data such as emails, social media, and audio recordings.
