🚨 Bookkeeping vs. Tax Work: Which Will AI Replace First?

Family, let’s talk about something real: AI is changing our industry FAST.

The Reality is:

✅ Bookkeeping → HIGH AI Risk

AI is already categorizing transactions and reconciling accounts. That means the “data entry” side of bookkeeping is getting wiped out. But business owners still need humans to fix cleanups, explain reports, and connect the numbers to real decisions.

✅ Tax → MEDIUM to LOW AI Risk

Yes, AI can handle simple W-2 returns. But when it comes to strategy—like saving a client $20K+ with the right entity choice, maximizing deductions, or handling the IRS—AI can’t replace you. That’s where the money and value are.

⚡ What this means for you:

If you’re just starting out → learning taxes is the smartest entry point. There will ALWAYS be demand for people who understand the code and can explain it in plain English.
If you already have clients → you need to move beyond compliance into strategy + advisory if you want to stay ahead of AI and charge premium fees.
