However, this week the firm was caught using AI in a report that was riddled with errors.

To be fair, AI will be doing all of Deloitte's jobs in 5 years.

“Caught” being the key word. For better or worse, using AI tools to supplement work is common practice in most white collar paper pusher type jobs, to some degree.

It comes built in with Microsoft now.
No one pays consultants for ideas. They pay consultants for responsibility. That way when shite goes wrong they don't take the fall themselves.

Exactly. I work for the State and they just came out with several EOs about requiring the use of AI. It’s a good tool. The problem for Deloitte, I assume, is they didn’t have someone go behind the AI and fact check or proofread it. If you’re purely relying on it to do something, you’re using it wrong.

This summer I was in a meeting with a developer and he recorded our entire conversation and then out it into AI to summarize it. It was so annoying and off-, putting. I don't know, how about you just pay f'ing attention during the meeting? It's actually rather rude.

Be careful talking about Deloitte in the State of Louisiana.
They are the kings here.

Maybe. Some of these systems have trouble reading the tax line on invoices. It’s not 100% with its mapping and would require someone to go back in and account for it.
Or it gets tripped up matching deposits that are the same and you still have to manually do it.

So basically they charged $440k for what ChatGPT could’ve done for free in five minutes. Sounds about right.

See that's the wrong usage.
My phone system added that tool a few months ago. It's typically off, but for important calls, I get permission and turn it on. I do it so that I don't have to take notes and can be fully immersed in the conversation, because I don't have to divert any of my attention elsewhere.

Almost all of my meetings are recorded and the AI summaries are given automatically after. It fricking sucks.

Good
those MF'ers along with McKenzie and the other "consulting firms" are responsible for more layoffs and changes in corporate culture than anything else... I look forward to their business demise with AI.

Figures. Most of the people I’ve encountered working for Deloitte weren’t that bright.

Not without checking it
Using paralegals and associates is too

Probably still an improvement over their normal work.
