Abstract
The central focus and purpose of the research conducted for this project are to

The past, present, and future uses of technology in the accounting field will be examined
to demonstrate the strides that have been achieved and those that may be achieved in the
future. The specific concepts of blockchain, artificial intelligence, and data visualization
will be examined on a deeper level to understand the overall effects that these developing
concepts may have on the accounting field. Students will be able to use the findings of
this research to gain an awareness of the current and emerging technologies that will
impact their accounting careers, both now and in the future.
