Abstract

The current study aims to use an integrated set of AI applications and to shed light on them, namely the system of expertise, synthetic neural networks, the language of expanded business reports, and genetic algorithms in building an accounting information system on the one hand, and in controlling the performance of e-government and developing and activating internal government mechanisms such as internal control, financial control, internal audit, as well as external government machinery intended to curb corruption and administrative reform.
