Tax in the age of AI and digital assets

Tuesday 27 January (1740 - 1845)

Description

This panel will explore how AI and digital assets are reshaping the global tax landscape. We will examine developments ranging from AI in audits, predictive analytics, taxpayer rights, and emerging debates on whether AI agents themselves should be taxed, to the rise of R&D and infrastructure incentives for AI, including large-scale datacentres. The discussion will also cover evolving rules for digital content, and crypto investment structures, highlighting both the opportunities and policy challenges of taxing innovation in an increasingly digital economy.
