The reflex when people hear "complex" in this era: "Can we use AI for it?".

Next month's headline: "IRS signs 200-million dollar deal with Grok to use AI to analyse tax returns, determine who gets audited".

You’re thinking too far behind. They can just use the AI to generate what your taxes would’ve been.

Just have a script with “what are the taxes owed by $name” and print the output

I’ll take $5M now and you can own 50% of my startup: GenTaxAI

Impossible - such a script would invalidate the need for Intuit and Intuit is critical for national security or something.

I suspect something like this may already be in place.
