  • Treasury Declares US Insolvent, AI Does Taxes (with Kenji Kuramoto)

    Treasury Declares US Insolvent, AI Does Taxes (with Kenji Kuramoto)
    Apr 1 2026
    Can AI really prepare a tax return without a human touching the keyboard? Blake and David dig into a wave of new accounting tools that promise exactly that, from AI tax prep and bookkeeping agents to month-end automation. They’re joined by Kenji Kuramoto of Basis to discuss what this means for firms, pricing, and jobs. Plus: the U.S. government’s worsening balance sheet, Tether’s long-awaited audit, and why token costs may become accounting’s next big metric.SponsorsCloud Accountant Staffing - http://accountingpodcast.promo/casOnPay - http://accountingpodcast.promo/onpayUNC - http://accountingpodcast.promo/uncChapters(00:00) - TAP 481(02:34) - US Insolvency Breakdown(06:04) - Household Budget Analogy(07:49) - GAO Disclaimer Explained(08:37) - AI Tax Prep Agents(11:45) - Kenji Joins the Show(15:07) - Kenji New Role at Basis(19:40) - Basis Agents for CAS(25:36) - AI Skills and Pricing Shift(28:04) - Token Billing and FinOps(33:55) - Tokens Not Timesheets(34:17) - Delve Compliance Fallout(36:18) - Xero Adds Claude AI(38:16) - Who Really Owns Data(41:06) - Ramp Accounting Agent(45:19) - Ramp Budgets Reality Check(48:27) - Canopy Bookkeeping Module(53:11) - Billcom Agents Soapbox(55:09) - Audit Tech Fundraising(56:37) - Tether Finally Gets Audited(59:52) - Costco Tariff Refund Lawsuit(01:02:16) - Wrap Up And CPE Show NotesThe Treasury just declared the U.S. insolvent.

  • Fake SOC 2 Reports as a Service & Games for Busy Season

    Fake SOC 2 Reports as a Service & Games for Busy Season
    Mar 26 2026
    Can AI really handle accounting and tax work—or is it just creating new ways to fake compliance? Blake and David dig into allegations of fraudulent SOC 2 reports, how taxpayers are actually using AI for tax prep, and why tools like Claude are creeping into finance workflows. They also cover FAA staffing risks, threats to state accountancy boards, and what listeners should watch as AI reshapes trust in the profession.SponsorsDigits - http://accountingpodcast.promo/digitsCloud Accountant Staffing - http://accountingpodcast.promo/casOnPay - http://accountingpodcast.promo/onpayUNC - http://accountingpodcast.promo/uncChapters(00:00) - TAP 480(01:28) - Sponsor Digits Overview(02:54) - LaGuardia Crash Breakdown(05:36) - Shutdown Staffing Fallout(07:58) - Livestream and CPE Plug(08:49) - Delve SOC 2 Allegations(15:57) - How Fake Audits Happen(20:49) - Sponsor Cloud Staffing(22:00) - Is Anyone Using AI(24:02) - AI for Tax Prep Examples(35:14) - AI Tax Advice Limits(36:04) - Tech Creates More Cleanup(36:41) - OnPay Payroll Sponsor(37:53) - Games To Beat Busy Season(40:42) - Florida Board Threat Averted(44:02) - UNC MAcc Sponsor(45:20) - Guess The Finance App(46:47) - Claude Targets Finance Workflows(50:29) - Will AI Replace The GL(55:07) - Women Partners Progress(01:00:50) - Wrap Up And CPE Show NotesAir Traffic Audio Appears to Show Tower Was Dealing With Incident Before Crash (New York Times via DNYUZ)https://dnyuz.com/2026/03/23/air-traffic-audio-appears-to-show-tower-was-dealing-with-incident-before-crash/ Delve — Fake Compliance as a Service — Part I (DeepDelver on Substack)https://deepdelver.substack.com/p/delve-fake-compliance-as-a-service Delve Accused of Misleading Customers with 'Fake Compliance' (TechCrunch)https://techcrunch.com/2026/03/22/delve-accused-of-misleading-customers-with-fake-compliance/ What 81,000 People Want from AI (Anthropic)https://www.anthropic.com/research/what-people-want-from-ai WSJ Readers Share How They Are Using AI for Tax Prep (Wall Street Journal via TaxProf Blog)https://taxprofblog.aals.org/2026/03/09/wsj-readers-share-how-they-are-using-ai-for-tax-prep/ 10 Fun Games to Play at Work and Their Impact on Productivity (Small Business Trends)https://smallbiztrends.com/games-to-play-at-work/ FICPA Legislative Update: End of 2026 Session — HB 607 Did Not Advance (Florida Institute of CPAs)https://www.ficpa.org/news/1cee5313-ce07-47f2-841f-48a95344f6f5:legislative-update-end-of-session-still-pending Claude for Financial Services (Anthropic)https://www.anthropic.com/financial-services Glass Ceiling Shattered?

  • Baby, Where The Hell Is My Audit?

    Baby, Where The Hell Is My Audit?
    Mar 26 2026
    Will AI actually take accountants’ jobs—or just change what their work looks like? Blake and David unpack the gap between AI hype and reality, from a LinkedIn challenge that found zero accountants replaced by AI to how firms like PwC and EY are shifting strategy. They also explore probabilistic audit opinions, AI agents in accounting workflows, and what professionals can do now to stay ahead.SponsorsOnPay - http://accountingpodcast.promo/onpayUNC - http://accountingpodcast.promo/uncChapters(00:00) - TAP 479(02:27) - Auditor Karaoke Protest(03:58) - Baby Where My Audit(07:14) - Reactions and Afroman(10:19) - Probabilistic Audit Opinions(14:57) - BDO Lawsuit and Liability(18:52) - Super Micro Fraud Signals(24:19) - Deterministic AI Checklists(30:16) - Checklist Driven AI Agents(31:28) - How LLMs Differ From Brains(33:00) - Puzzle Functions And Guardrails(36:06) - Prompting For Clarifying Questions(36:48) - UNC MAcc Sponsor Break(38:30) - PwC Goes AI First(41:46) - EY Bets On CPA Talent(43:27) - AI Exposure Index Reality Check(47:40) - Will Accounting Jobs Disappear(50:23) - Coan Paradox And Rising Standards(52:43) - AI As A Career Upskill(55:20) - Who Is Losing Work To AI(56:23) - Livestream Chat And Wrap Up Show NotesMassachusetts Auditor DiZoglio Performs "Baby Where the Hell Is My Audit" Parodyhttps://www.bostonglobe.com/2025/04/16/metro/diana-dizoglio-auditor-legislature-audit-democrats/ Afroman Wins Defamation Lawsuit Filed by Ohio Police Officershttps://www.cbsnews.com/news/afroman-wins-lawsuit-ohio-police-raid-music-videos/ Would You Take a Probabilistic Audit Opinion?https://www.accountingtoday.com/opinion/would-you-take-a-probabilistic-audit-opinion BDO Faces Investor Lawsuit That Could Impact Other Firmshttps://www.accountingtoday.com/news/bdo-faces-investor-lawsuit-that-could-impact-other-firms Super Micro Computer Co-Founder Charged With Smuggling Nvidia AI Chips to Chinahttps://www.cnn.com/2026/03/19/politics/super-micro-computer-founder-charged-ai-chips-china Puzzle Launches AI Close for Accountants https://puzzle.io/blog/puzzle-accounting-ai PwC CEO: You Cannot Opt Out of AIhttps://www.accountingtoday.com/news/pwc-ceo-you-cannot-opt-out-of-ai EY Doubles CPA Exam Bonus to $10K https://www.accountingtoday.com/news/ey-doubles-cpa-exam-bonus-to-10k Anthropic AI Labor Market Impacts Report https://www.anthropic.com/research/labor-market-impacts Microsoft AI Chief Gives It 18 Months for All White-Collar Work to Be Automatedhttps://fortune.com/2026/02/13/when-will-ai-kill-white-collar-office-jobs-18-months-microsoft-mustafa-suleyman/ Only 14% of UK Finance Leaders See Traditional Accounting Skills as Valuable for Next Generationhttps://www.theglobalrecruiter.com/only-14-per-cent-of-finance-leaders-see-traditional-accounting-skills-as-valuable-for-next-generation/ Accounting and Tax Staff Worry AI Threatens Jobshttps://www.accountingtoday.com/news/accounting-and-tax-employees-feel-ai-threatens-job-prospects AI's First Substitution: Freelancers (Ramp Economics Lab) https://ramp.com/velocity/ai-labor-market-impact-freelancers Record Number of Companies Are Ditching Old CEOs for Younger, Less Experienced Executives https://finance.yahoo.com/news/fired-record-number-companies-ditching-152914066.htmlNeed CPE?Get CPE for listening to podcasts with Earmark: https://earmarkcpe.comSubscribe to the Earmark Podcast: https://podcast.earmarkcpe.comGet in TouchThanks for listening and the great reviews!
