One-click AI tax filing could save Americans millions of hours, argues VC David Aronchick

An AI tax-filing tool built by the ex-Tumblr founder team is drawing attention, with @aronchick hoping it puts H&R Block out of business and makes all US tax returns one click.
His core argument: the federal government already knows the answers to most 1040s and only makes citizens do the work "for reasons." If AI produces the return in one click, users who dislike the answer can still file manually — potentially saving millions of wasted citizen hours.
