Internal Revenue Service IRS
%X The Securities and Exchange Commission is requiring companies
to do their mandatory filings on computer readable media.  The
SEC has tried an AI system to extract financial data from the
reports to be input into calculations.  This worked with a
94 percent success rate but the SEC is now requiring that these
figures be tagged for easy extraction.  The IRS would like to
store tax returns on optical disk and then destroy the
paper copies but the Department of Justice is opposed because
this would prevent forensic examination of fingerprints or
signatures on the physical returns.
