Finance employees are most likely to be replaced by artificial intelligence (AI) in the future, said a research report by Deloitte on Nov. 30, China News reported.

　　据《中国新闻》报道，德勤(Deloitte)11月30日发布的一份研究报告称，未来，财务工作人员最有可能被人工智能(AI)取代。

　　The research investigated nearly 500 managerial staffs in different fields in China, of which more than 80 percent said that AI is most likely to be applied to financial work, and over three quarters said that AI could be used to provide assistance for their management work in five years.

　　本次研究对中国不同行业的近500名管理人员进行了调查，其中八成以上受访者认为财务工作最有可能应用人工智能，75%的受访者认为，在5年内，人工智能将会被用于协助自己的管理工作。

　　According to the report, most of the respondents think jobs requiring carefulness and preciseness are more likely to use AI than those requiring professional knowledge, logical analysis, and communication and coordination skills.

　　据报告称，大多数受访者认为，相比于要求专业知识、逻辑分析以及沟通协调能力的工作，那些要求“细致、严谨”的工作最有可能被人工智能所替代。

　　Enterprises, therefore, should make full use of innovative technologies and tools such as big data and cognitive computing to get ready for both the opportunities and challenges to be brought by AI, said Xie An, a business partner of Deloitte.

　　德勤的业务合伙人谢安称，因此，企业应充分利用大数据、认知计算等创新技术和工具，为人工智能带来的机遇和挑战做好准备。

　　Xie added that China’s education sector should also make appropriate adjustments to cultivate talents for the coming era of AI.

　　他还说，中国的教育结构也应当作出适当的调整，以培养人才，应对人工智能时代的到来。
