Explore our infographic to dive into key findings from nearly 3,000 surveyed professionals on risk management, digital transformation, and the importance of AI.
Evaluating digital capabilities across internal audit
In a November 2020 Dbriefs webcast, we discussed an overview of emerging technologies, digital capabilities, and effective risk management techniques. Specifically, we focused on how they relate to digital transformation initiatives, risks associated with metrics in external reporting and internal monitoring, and Trustworthy AI™. During the webcast, we also surveyed almost 3,000 professionals about the extent of their organizations’ digital transformation, internal audit’s level of involvement, their greatest challenges in auditing advanced digital capabilities, and their approach to ethical concerns surrounding AI.

In a recent Deloitte survey, 83 percent of executives said that AI will be very or critically important to their business success in the next two years, and 95 percent said they have concerns around ethical risks arising due to AI.
