Professor Alex Sandy Pentland, MIT, and Jeff Saviano, Chief of Advanced Global Tax Project of EY, together with the Boston Global Forum and experts of the World Bank and the New American, discussed about applied AI, Blockchain, and Big Data to build the Advanced Global Tax System, as a important part of the AI-Government. They discussed about:
- Influencing taxpayers’ behavior should be an area of focus to develop AI (machine learning) enabled solutions
- How technology (AI in particular) can be leveraged to prompt new and desired behaviors in taxpayers through more effective communications
- How technology-enabled solutions should touch on all the following aspects: (i) enforcement, (ii) compliance, and (iii) trust
The advanced global tax system will be a part of the Social Contract 2020, a project developed by Governor Michael Dukakis, Vint Cerf, one of fathers of Internet, Nguyen Anh Tuan, Professor Alex Sandy Pentland, Professor Nazli Choucri (MIT), Professor Thomas Patterson, and Professor David Silbersweig (Harvard).
