Haven’t most tax returns been automated since way before AI? Most methods can pull and auto-pop all the needed info. Usually after I give it my SSN or sometimes a number or two from the W2 it’s done but for some clicking through review screens.
They have, yes. Doing math for your taxes is as simple a task as doing math that needs to be applied to your taxes in the correct order. There’s no need for AI in that process at all.
The only potentially difficult part (massive “potentially” here) that doesn’t involve math is probably having a UI that intuitively guides the user into selecting the right things that apply to them (if that data can’t already be queried from somewhere else like a government site). But you don’t really need AI for that either.
So what if people with no talent or money for commissions can get some joy seeing their imaginations rendered by a computer? You have to pay some artist or just have the ideas in your imagination.
