Embracing GenAI - A Strategic ImperativePeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

The concept of materiality is applied by the auditor both in planning and performing the audit, and in evaluating the effect of identified misstatements on the audit and the financial statements. Misstatements, including omissions, are considered to be material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of the financial statements. Judgments about materiality are made in the light of surrounding circumstances, and are affected by the auditor’s perception of the financial information needs of users of the financial statements, and by the size or nature of a misstatement, or a combination of both. The auditor’s opinion deals with the financial statements as a whole and therefore the auditor is not responsible for the detection of misstatements that are not material to the financial statements as a whole.
Materiality – Information is material if its omission or misstatement could influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of the financial statements. Materiality depends on the size of the item or error judged in the particular circumstances of its omission or misstatement. Thus, materiality provides a threshold or cutoff point rather than being a primary qualitative characteristic which information must have if it is to be useful. We discuss materiality in greater depth in Chapter 6.
Limitations result from the use of testing, internal control system effectiveness, audit evidence is persuasive rather than conclusive, and audit work is permeated by judgment.
In order to design audit procedures to determine whether financial statements are materially misstated, the auditor considers the risk at two levels. One level of risk is that the overall financial statements may be misstated. The second risk is misstatement in relation to classes of transactions, account balances, and disclosures.

Internal and External Audit.
Operational audit used mainly by internal auditors to measure company operations. The operations of the receiving department of a manufacturing company, for example, may be evaluated in terms of its effectiveness, that is, its success in meeting its shared goals and responsibilities. Compliance audit mainly for governmental audit (comply with government standards). An example would be an audit of taxpayers to see if they comply with national tax law such as the audit of an income tax return by an auditor of the government tax agency such as the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) in the United States.

. Auditing Tasks – Type of Auditor.
Independent auditors should evaluate the competence and objectivity of internal auditors by inquiries: organizational status, professional standards used, audit plan, and access to records.
