Almost a quarter of tax audits carried out in 2019 are the result of the intervention of algorithms. An artificial intelligence is now analyzing the data that is available to the tax administration, reports Le Figaro.
This use of automation and AI enables predictive study of numbers and new examination methods. Data mining is also used by the General Directorate of Public Finances (DGFiP).
More efficient tax controls
These new technologies make it possible to launch inspections of taxpayer files in a more targeted manner, with, as a result, more fraudsters pinned and money recovered. In 2019, the tax authorities thus got their hands on 11 billion euros after carrying out checks. This amount represents an annual increase of 30% compared to 2018.
In addition to this significant sum, 530 million euros were in fact recovered at the end of judicial Convention proceedings of public interest or of appearance on prior admission of guilt. No less than 358 million euros have also been paid by taxpayers after taking into account corrective tax returns completed by them.
