I’m Not Worried About AI

Clients don’t call their AI when they’re stressed out about cash flow. They call their bookkeeper.

I’ve seen this story play out once already. In wealth management, robo-advisors were supposed to wipe out the industry. Cheap. efficient, “smarter than humans.”

Then, markets tank, or a big life decision arises. Clients aren’t looking to the algos for answers. They wanted someone who understood their goals, their fears, and blind spots.

Bookkeeping, or any other advice-related job, is not much different.
AI can read receipts and punch out a report. Helpful? Definitely!

When a business owner lies awake at night wondering if they can afford to hire, expand, or survive a slow season, a tool won’t cut it.

That’s where judgment, context, and the human touch prevail.

As a bookkeeper, I’m not worried about being replaced by AI. The tools simply help me do my job more effectively.

Helping people make better decisions with clarity and confidence. That’s my job.

Let’s hear it for all the advisors and consultants who add value to others.
