Taxpayer data privacy is a critical issue in today's age of technological advancement. With the increasing amount of personal information being shared and stored online with third parties, it is important for governments and tax practitioners to take steps to protect taxpayer data from unauthorized access or misuse. Additionally, Section 6103 provides a unique challenge for the collection, use, and disposal of taxpayer data, now that more IRS employees are working from home. But the rise in big data also presents unique opportunities for federal and state government agencies to incentivize taxpayers and businesses with new types of tax incentives to promote social good. This panel will discuss relevant issues related to taxpayer data privacy and artificial intelligence, the importance of Section 6103, and the potential future for taxpayer data incentives and credits.
Learning Objectives: After attending the session, the participant will be able to:
- •Define the terms data, taxpayer data, data privacy, and artificial intelligence.
