Resolved: The United States federal government substantially reform the use of Artificial Intelligence technology
Case Summary: The AFF plan would augment AI technology in the IRS to scan, analyze, and evaluate incoming tax returns. The AI will be acquired through a Request for Proposal and will be used to process tax returns. Funding: 100 million dollars in the IRS budget.
Biggest problem is that the Status Quo already started doing the plan in July 2021. IRS put out for bids a contract consisting of multiple incremental phases that will scan and digitize paper tax returns. The IRS is doing it on a phased incremental approach because it’s better than trying to do a big huge project all at once (like AFF wants). There are a lot of challenges to be overcome and it’s not as simple as it sounds. In additional rendering the AFF plan untopical (not reforming anything if SQ is already doing it), our evidence will argue that the Status Quo’s slow phase-in approach is better than one big clumsy project.
