Ditto Tax: AI-driven automated tax advice using enabling knowledge acquisition methodology

“随着世界走向自动化，多个行业的一个不断增长的市场是”自动化咨询“，正如英国财政部和FCA所强调的那样，由于监管的复杂性和不断变化的性质，一个例子是，由于需要对规则进行人工解释，为了使自动化建议模型取得成功，支撑它的算法必须在应用专家知识方面完全准确，能够解决每一种可能的情况，并且还提供如何确定最终建议的审计跟踪。因此，在更复杂的税收领域，例如针对创新的税收激励措施，自动提供建议方面几乎没有创新，因为很难对各种不同的情况进行指导，而这些情况无法通过标准流程图方法进行建模。这导致许多中小企业由于缺乏知识、害怕直接与HMRC接触或探索潜在计划的高成本障碍而未能受益。DittoAI开发了一种独特的知识获取方法，不依赖于面试官，可以产生可计算的输出，详尽记录个人的决策并编码他们在任何主题上的全部专业知识。DittoAI可以保证任何主题的完整，正确和一致的输出，沿着完整的审计跟踪以揭示所有决策点，通过数字化捕获来自任何来源的知识，并通过人工智能驱动的界面向最终用户提供精确的专业知识。影响：* DittoAI技术的基础是人工智能系统所需的一项巨大的技术，每当它们需要详细和可追溯的专家输入才能工作时，该项目将允许DittoAI技术的进一步版本在其他市场中被利用。DittoAI为任何公司提供了访问和编纂其少数/忙碌专家的专业知识的能力，并通过其任何员工（甚至以自动化的方式）提供服务，提高其服务提供，交付能力，并消除因死亡/辞职等失去关键人员所面临的风险 * 提供可靠和一致的税务建议，以确保消费者能够准确地完成他们的税单。目前，由于税务顾问提供的指导和不正确/不一致的建议的复杂性，估计每年有100亿英镑的潜在研发税收抵免无人认领。"

"As the world moves towards automation, a growing market across multiple sectors is 'automated advice', a key demand for which, as highlighted by HM Treasury and the FCA, is in the financial advice sector resulting from the complexity and ever-changing nature of regulations/legislation.An example is the difficulty in providing a holistic automated advice solution for financial advice due the requirement for human interpretation of the rules to a specific case.In order for an automated advice model to be successful, the algorithm underpinning it must be completely accurate in the application of expert knowledge, be able to address every possible scenario, and also provide an audit trail of how the ultimate recommendation was determined. Consequentially little innovation has occurred in automated advice provision in more complex tax areas, such as innovation targeted tax incentives, due to the difficult interpretation of guidance to widely varying scenarios, which cannot be modelled via standard flowchart approach. This has led to many SME's failing to benefit due to a lack of knowledge, fear of engaging directly with HMRC, or high cost barriers to explore potential schemes.DittoAI have developed a unique knowledge acquisition methodology, free from interviewer dependency that can produce a computable output that exhaustively documents an individual's decision-making & encodes their entire expertise on any subject. DittoAI can guarantee a complete, correct and consistent output for any subject matter, along with a complete audit trail to reveal all decision points, by digitally capturing the knowledge from any source and delivering precise expertise to the end-user via an artificial intelligence driven interface.**Impacts:*** The underpinning DittoAI technology is a hugely enabling technology needed by AI systems whenever they require detailed and traceable expert input to work, this project will allow further versions of the DittoAI technology to be exploited in other markets.* DittoAI offers ability for any company to access and codify the expertise of their few/ busy experts, and deliver it through any of their staff (or even in an automated fashion) increasing their service offering, delivery capacity, and removing the risks faced by losing key personnel from death/resignation, etc* Offering a reliable and consistent tax advice to ensure consumers are able to accurately complete their tax bills. Currently an estimated £10bil of potential R&D Tax Credits go unclaimed each year, due to the complexity of the guidance and incorrect/inconsistent advice offered by tax consultants."
