This paper investigates the ethical implications of integrating blockchain and artificial intelligence (AI) technologies into financial accounting. By reviewing peer-reviewed journals and research papers, the study identifies key ethical challenges, including data privacy, algorithmic bias, transparency, and regulatory compliance. The findings emphasize the need for robust ethical frameworks and regulatory guidelines to ensure these technologies are implemented responsibly. The paper also highlights the transformative potential of blockchain and AI in enhancing efficiency, accuracy, and fraud detection within financial accounting systems.
