Si ces évolutions améliorent l’efficacité et la précision des processus, elles soulèvent également des enjeux éthiques majeurs. Dans les domaines de la comptabilité et de l’audit, l’intégration croissante de l’IA transforme les méthodes de collecte et d’analyse des données, tout en redéfinissant le rôle du jugement professionnel. Toutefois, ces technologies introduisent des risques significatifs, notamment liés à l’opacité algorithmique, aux biais décisionnels, à la responsabilité en cas d’erreur et à l’indépendance de l’auditeur. Cette recherche examine dans quelle mesure l’adoption de l’IA dans le processus d’audit génère des risques éthiques. À partir d’une étude de cas en Malaisie, elle analyse les implications de ces transformations dans un contexte institutionnel propre aux économies émergentes. Enfin, elle interroge les cadres de gouvernance et les mécanismes de contrôle susceptibles d’encadrer l’usage de l’IA, afin de préserver les principes fondamentaux de l’audit, tels que l’intégrité, l’objectivité et la transparence.Cairn restricted access
