IRS agent: Vibe tax audit.
My tax preparer had his tax software (expensive cloud-based shit that costs in the neighborhood of $30K per month) go completely down on him for a couple of months this spring (obviously not the best time for this). He had to have all of his clients file for extensions. When he told me about this I explained that it was almost certainly because the software company started using AI. He got all defensive and started saying how great he thought AI was, but it turns out he was talking about the use of AI instead of this expensive software and his employees for prepping tax returns.
I was already mentally picking out a new tax preparer, but when he mentioned that he was personally investing in a "reactionless space engine" where the inventor used ChatGPT to fix all the problems he was having with it, I made a point of starting the search that afternoon.

I tried asking an LLM (Opus!) a question about how a specific calculation worked on my taxes and it was incredibly wrong.
I had made a minor mistake last year, so I had to call the CRA anyways. Just as an aside I asked and they confirmed the LLM was very very wrong never do that.
Edit: I should add, Quebec CRA employees have 200% more chill than Ontario CRA employees.
