I enjoy reading non-fiction business books. If you looked upon my shelf, you would find Daniel Pink, Mark Manson, Brené Brown, and yes, Stephen Covey. An author I recently stumbled upon, American anthropologist David Graeber, wrote a 2018 book titled Bullshit Jobs. The title caught my attention, as I’m sure the title of this essay caught yours. This book was an extension of a 2013 essay he wrote for Strike! magazine which had become wildly popular. Probably the title, amirite?

Data analytics, automation, and AI — today’s “AAA” — are foundational to modern business technology and audit innovation. Lately, however, AI gets most of the buzz.
