Abstract
Nowadays, it is not uncommon to hear words that the accountant profession may disappear from the labor market. Similar statements are being made by officials from the Ministry of Economic Development and the Ministry of Finance of Russia. Experts believe that an accountant can be replaced by artificial intelligence. In the age of technological progress, such statements can be considered justified, but information technology can make mistakes that, due to its professionalism, only a real person can detect. In addition, businesses need a professional who is able to interpret and analyze data obtained using new digital technologies, build a control system and give an expert assessment of the work of the neural network itself. The article discusses the issues of the future of the accounting profession, taking into account the opinions of students of the Omsk State University of Railway Engineering.
