Do you have any other comments, questions or concerns?
There was too much talk about AI but not how it would actually integrate into AP. Also, I think it was skewed towards Manufacturing and Retail.

Do you have any other comments, questions or concerns?
I felt too much time was spent on examples of fraud. The webinar could have been cut back with less of this.
