Automating SOX Audits with RAG

Blake Oliver meets with Josh Poresky, a recent college graduate working in audit at RSM. Josh describes his innovative AI project that uses retrieval augmented generation (RAG) to query PCAOB audit guidelines instantly. They explore how this technology could potentially automate up to 99% of staff work for internal controls testing in SOX audits and also highlight some of the challenges and future possibilities of implementing AI in auditing processes.
