🎥 The interview everyone's been asking about is now on YouTube
A few months ago, someone who isn't an accountant built the world's first AI accountancy firm. Eleven AI "colleagues". Each with a name, a job title, and a workstream. And a managing partner called Grace Ledger. I sat down with Alexis Kingsbury ... the man behind it, and author of the number one Amazon bestseller Accrual Intentions ... to find out what actually happened. It's not a story about AI replacing accountants. It's far more useful than that. In the conversation we get into: - What "agentic AI" really means, and why it changed everything in 2026 - How his AI team built 108 files in 8 minutes ... and where that went badly wrong - The moment the AI confidently pushed him to take paying clients with no AML registration - Why you should never let AI do your calculations, and what to do instead - Why confident, beautifully presented AI errors are harder to spot than a junior's - What this all means for junior roles and the future of the profession My honest take ... this was one of the most eye-opening chats I've had all year. Alexis is refreshingly straight about where AI is brilliant and where it's genuinely dangerous. 👉 The recording is here (Please help support the YouTube channel by Liking the video and subscribing). Have a watch, then tell me in the comments ... would you ever let AI loose on your own year-end accounts? 👇

@Mark Wickersham I'm almost finished. Like you, I would like to have more of details, but I understand why he didn't give everything away. I found myself filling in the blanks. For example, one of the team member agents did work it hadn't been asked to do. It's unlikely it made up the whole assignment. There had to have been instructions that kicked this off. Those are important details that would help people understand AI more practically. Regardless, it was an entertaining read.

@Mark Wickersham That sounds similar to how Alexis built his agents using Custom GPTs. Something that businesses have to consider when they outsource work to AI is who will manage these agents. APIs and third party apps are continually changing. What works today might not tomorrow. Someone has to be responsible for tracking these changes, and how they impact what was implemented. It's an interesting time for sure.

Claude Creates a Hidden Watermark in Its Work
Anthropic announced that it's embedding a watermark in all of the text it creates. This is cleverly woven into the text so it's not visible to a human. If you've been using Claude to write and distribute text for you, be aware that it now includes a permanent footprint. If you're copying and pasting even some of what Claude has written, you might want to consider typing it yourself instead. It seems likely that platforms that are pushing back on AI-generated content now have a clearer way to detect it. https://support.claude.com/en/articles/16266773-how-claude-marks-ai-generated-content

@Mark Wickersham I have the same thoughts. It was in response to the EU, but it seems like it went too far. I can see labeling content that is completely AI-generated. What happens next is anyone's guess. What I don't think is reasonable is embedding a watermark in something that Claude only reviewed. What might have started as 100% human generated becomes AI-generated when Claude adds a comma? I don't think so. I read a post yesterday from an attorney who had some interesting points about this. There are a lot of implications when a legal document is labeled as AI-generated and becomes part of a legal case. Something tells me this isn't the last we'll hear about this. In the meantime, I'll stick with ChatGPT for my doc reviews.

Great Session: I Let AI Run My Firm
If you didn't catch @Mark Wickersham's conversation with Alexis Kingsbury today, you'll want to watch it on YouTube. Alexis created a 100% AI-driven accounting firm as an experiment. What he discovered is insightful, practical, and realistic. Thanks for this, Mark!

@Mark Wickersham That was a quick hour, wasn't it? I could have listened to that conversation for at least another one. What I appreciated was his realistic view of what AI should do and where humans matter.

@Krista McLellan I don't think it's been uploaded yet. Mark said it would be later this week.

How Has AI Changed Your Business
If you've outsourced some of your everyday tasks to AI, how are you putting this time savings to use? Have you added or expanded existing services? Have other tasks taken their place? Curious how AI has changed your business.

@Mark Wickersham One of the things I've always admired about you is your curiosity. AI has certainly given you a big playground to experiment and learn. You're right, it's amazing what AI can do, and its capabilities keep expanding. There's so much hype about AI that it can create pressure to hurry up and do something. I hope people give themselves permission to slow down enough to see how it fits into their business. Doing more of what you love to do is a great use of your time.
