This is an interesting and well-thought-out paper: "Every figure HMRC produces, the tax it collects, the risks it targets, the gap it publishes, is metabolised from the financial data it ingests, and that data originates as a categorisation decision made when a transaction is recorded. "For millions of UK businesses, that decision is now made by probabilistic software. "This paper asks a single question: will the adoption of probabilistic artificial intelligence in small-business bookkeeping widen the tax gap, and is it doing so already?" https://theemperorsnewnodes.substack.com/p/you-are-what-you-eat-will-probabilistic (Made me think of @emilymbender ) #AI #data #SmallBusiness #UK #bookkeeping
