Tax Authority, 200 databases against tax evasion. Parliament: a brake on any abuse of AI

The Italian Parliament is focusing on balancing privacy with the fight against tax evasion through enhanced oversight of AI use in tax administration. Maurizio Casasco emphasizes the need for transparency and human supervision in AI-driven tax assessments. The Commission is advocating for improved interoperability of databases to enhance information sharing among administrations while ensuring data security. A proposed AI sandbox aims to test systems for risk analysis and fraud prevention in a controlled environment. Additionally, the Commission is considering more frequent reporting of financial information to improve responsiveness.
