In the US, all you need to work in tax prep is a high school diploma and most individuals are not worth the cost of an audit.
I wouldn't say it's particularly brave, in fact LLMs are probably better at identifying mistakes than most tax payers. The % of Americans using a CPA to file taxes is fairly small.
you know i had a tax accountant that said i dont have to cap gains on iso exercise . i checked it with ai that gave me all the detailed info that i took back to accountant who then agreed that they made a mistake.
Even if you dont feel comfortable using ai for taxes. you can atleast understand your situation better. And go to accountant for final 10percent. It is not really that hard.
That's fine if you have a relatively straightforward situation. If the situation is a bit more complex, with important decisions you should consider, it might still need some eyeballing and time. That is accounting.
