This week on The Audit Podcast, we're joined by Geoff Kovesdy, who leads Digital Controls AI and Automation, and Jimena Escamilla, Senior Manager in Deloitte's (https://www.deloitte.com/us/en.html) Advisory group.


They share their favorite ChatGPT and Copilot prompts, talk about the one thing auditors should focus on right now, and discuss how audit teams can get AI and innovation wrong—and how to avoid those mistakes. The conversation also looks at leadership, with Geoff's reminder that "soft skills equal power skills."


Geoff will also be speaking at the 2025 Audit Analytics & AI Conference (https://theauditanalyticsconference.com/) on September 24–25. The event is virtual, and recordings will be available. His session will cover "GenAI: The Truth of the Matter and Impact on Risks and Controls."
