Register today for the free March 18, 2025 chapter luncheon meeting featuring Dr. Scott Dell, co-author of ChatGPT and AI for Accountants: A Practitioners Guide.
Artificial intelligence (AI) Chatbots like ChatGPT have taken the world by storm. With over 100 million users in less than two months, it is the fastest-growing computer application to hit the world, EVER! It continues to grow exponentially not only in the number of users but in its power and flexibility.
So, what’s the big deal?
This tool, in all modesty, will CHANGE WORK AND LIFE AS WE KNOW IT. Not only will jobs be displaced, but ultimately, more will be created. In this session, we share with you some background information to understand this amazing tool while sharing insights about applying its power in the world of accounting. We will discover the opportunities and limitations of this life-changing resource as we “go live” in asking questions and getting answers that could help us all be better at what we do. Business and life will never be the same. We are making history. Join us to discover what ChatGPT can do for you, your organizations, and the constituents you serve.
The meeting will be held at Bridgewater Place (333 Bridge Avenue NW, Grand Rapids). Please park on Level C and enter through the sliding doors. The chapter will provide parking passes to all chapter members and guests.
