Günümüzde yapay zeka, verimliliği, doğruluğu ve dolandırıcılığı tespit etme yeteneğini iyileştirerek geleneksel denetim yöntemlerini hızla değiştirmektedir. Yapay zekanın gerçek zamanlı veri analizini etkinleştirmek, risk değerlendirmesini geliştirmek ve tekrarlayan denetim süreçlerini otomatikleştirmek için giderek daha fazla nasıl kullanıldığı bağımsız denetim mesleğinde, bu yansımanın literatürde nasıl karşılık bulduğunun analizi bu çalışmanın amacını oluşturmaktadır. Bu çalışma tematik analiz yöntemiyle Web of Science endekste yapay zeka ve bağımsız denetim ilişkisini irdeleyen güncel çalışmaları incelemektedir. Bu amaç doğrultusunda güncel literatür özetlendikten sonra, çalışmaların alan, konu, ülke, yıl ve yayıncı dergi adlı beş başlık altında analizi gerçekleştirilmiştir. Çalışmanın bulgularına göre, incelenen çalışmaların büyük çoğunluğunun İşletme Finansı alanında olduğu, kurumsal yönetim konusu üzerine odaklandığı, çok uluslu işbirlikleri sonucu yayınlandığı fakat ABD ve Çin’in sahip oldukları gelişmiş altyapının yardımıyla çok sayıda çalışmayla ön plana çıktığı, 2020 yılı sonrasında yayınların artış trendi gösterdiği, yayıncı dergilerin çok disipli dergiler olup sadece finans, denetim ya da muhasebe odaklı yayınlar içermediği tespit edilmiştir.

Today, artificial intelligence is rapidly changing traditional auditing methods by improving efficiency, accuracy, and fraud detection. This study aims to analyze how artificial intelligence is increasingly used in the independent auditing profession to enable real-time data analysis, improve risk assessment, and automate repetitive auditing processes, and how this reflection is reflected in the literature. This study examines current studies examining the relationship between artificial intelligence and independent auditing in the Web of Science index using the thematic analysis method. In line with this purpose, after summarizing the current literature, the studies were analyzed under five headings: field, topic, country, year, and publisher journal. According to the study's findings, it was determined that the majority of the examined studies were in the field of business finance, focusing on corporate governance, and were published as a result of multinational collaborations. Still, the USA and China came to the fore with many studies with the help of their advanced infrastructure. The publications exhibited an increasing trend after 2020, and the publishing journals were multidisciplinary, not focusing solely on finance, auditing, or accounting.
