A French company has used artificial intelligence to offer you an assistant to help you fill out your tax form.
Artificial intelligence has this ability to condense and select incredible amounts of information which has allowed it to give birth to chatbots like ChatGPT or Bard. But AI can also be used for more specific tasks, like today with this French tax consulting company!
TaxMind, the new tax specialist
AI is not just a dangerous tool in the hands of crooks. The new technology can indeed also be used in everyday life to facilitate many tasks. Thus, in the United States, companies already offer chatbots to be able to negotiate the payment of some of your invoices for you.
A type of service that also happens in France. As we reveal BFM-TV, a French company, TaxMind, launched a new AI a few weeks ago. The latter, based on the OpenAI API (and therefore ChatGPT) has developed a chatbot whose data comes from the General Tax Code and the Official Bulletin of Public Finances (Bofip).
As a result, the proposed artificial intelligence allows you to be questioned on tax issues and to offer you advice when filling out the tax form (yes, in case you didn’t know, it’s the season!) .
Not an advisor of last resort
To illustrate his point, the boss, Pierre-Henri Janssens, takes the example of a question about the declaration to be made of a furnished rental. ” Our tool is able to say if these are industrial and commercial profits, what amount is taxable and ultimately which tax regime to choose he explains.
It also indicates, for those who would refer to the too many times the AI has started to fantasize, that the chatbot ofe TaxMind bases “its answers not on what it knows, but on what it is given, using specific sources of law. » Thus greatly reducing the number of possible errors.
However, the chatbot remains a help, and should not be considered as a specialist imposing a definitive opinion. It is up to the declarant to ultimately judge the relevance of the information. For those interested, TaxMind offers its services free of charge until the end of the online tax declaration period, on June 8th.
