The best AI in audit doesn't just give you an answer. It shows you exactly how it got there. That visibility is what turns a result into something you can trust and confidently sign off on. That is what stood out in our conversation with Malgorzata (Gosia) Kostrubiec ACCA, Associate Director, Digital Audit at Grant Thornton Ireland. As she put it: "DataSnipper provides the ability for people to easily review what the automation has done. Traceability and being able to trust the results are key in audit." A big thank you to Gosia for sharing what good AI in audit looks like! #AIAgents #GrandtThornton
