As AI moves from simple assistants into agentic systems capable of acting across a workflow, auditors face a new question: not just "can AI do this work," but "can this work be trusted, governed, and defended when challenged?"
This session walks through the AI Trust Stack — a five-layer framework moving from intelligence, to agents, workflow systems, professional context, and governance — to give audit and assurance professionals a practical lens for evaluating AI in their engagements. Rather than treating AI adoption as a technology decision, the session frames it as a defensibility decision: every AI-assisted conclusion in an audit file must ultimately be explainable, reviewable, and stand up to regulator or client scrutiny. With a few short example demonstrations also included, attendees will leave with a shared vocabulary for discussing AI risk and value with partners, clients, and regulators, and a checklist for assessing whether an AI tool or agent is actually audit-ready.
