Lincoln, United States, September 22, 2026 /PressCable/ -- Beta Virtual Assistance Solutions has released a detailed expert analysis revealing 13 specific errors in a ChatGPT-generated crypto tax report, underscoring critical limitations when artificial intelligence tools are applied to complex tax portfolios. Jessica Freeman, the expert leading the analysis, conducted a direct comparative review that demonstrates how popular AI platforms produce inaccurate outputs when tasked with real-world cryptocurrency transaction histories. High-net-worth investors exploring AI-driven tax solutions now face documented evidence that these tools require rigorous human verification before filing, particularly when portfolios involve DeFi protocols, multiple wallets, and cross-exchange activity.

OpenAI's updated usage policy, effective October 29, 2025, explicitly prohibits ChatGPT from providing personalized financial, legal, or medical advice, or being used for consultations that would normally require a licensed professional, acknowledging that it "is not intended to replace professional advice." This inherent limitation takes on heightened significance given the regulatory environment: the IRS launched Operation Hidden Treasure in 2021, specifically targeting crypto tax violations and signaling increased scrutiny and enforcement for crypto holders. A 2026 Crypto Tax Readiness Report found that while 74% of U.S. crypto users understand cryptocurrency is taxable, only 49% correctly identified that a taxable event occurs every time crypto is sold, revealing knowledge gaps that software alone cannot bridge.
For high-net-worth investors managing intricate transaction histories, unchecked software outputs can silently convert a partial gain into a 100% taxable event, potentially costing more than a year's worth of gains due to "lost cost basis" flags the software cannot explain. Freeman's core principle-"Cost Basis is the Holy Grail"-highlights the foundation of accurate tax reporting, where even a single misclassified transaction can cascade into serious financial consequences. When cost basis data is missing or incorrectly transferred across wallets, investors face the risk of overpaying taxes on gains they never realized or triggering audit red flags that demand extensive documentation.
Beta Virtual Assistance Solutions specializes in organizing complex crypto transaction histories for tax season, untangling complicated situations across multiple exchanges, wallets, and DeFi platforms. Freeman's approach requires human oversight to verify that balances match software outputs, check the time logic of transactions, and reconstruct missing wallet data by tracing movements across blockchain networks. The company offers various service packages-DIY Do-It-Yourself, and By the Hour-designed to help clients achieve accurate and audit-proof crypto tax reporting tailored to different levels of portfolio complexity and investor involvement.
Beginning with 2025 transactions, custodial brokers are required to report gross proceeds from digital asset dispositions to the IRS via Form 1099-DA; however, cost basis reporting is not mandatory for 2025, leaving a significant recordkeeping burden on taxpayers to avoid a default zero-basis assumption by the IRS, according to regulatory standards. High-net-worth crypto investors with complex portfolios want to be audit-proof and avoid overpaying taxes, making Freeman's forensic approach-tracing wallet movements across blockchain, identifying missing transactions, and relabeling loans correctly-necessary for clients who need documented proof if audited. The 2025-2026 regulatory environment intensifies the need for meticulous recordkeeping, as investors face heightened scrutiny without the safety net of broker-reported cost basis data.
The analysis serves as a public-facing proof point, a documented case study showing real errors in real output. Freeman asserts that crypto tax software, while useful, requires human oversight to clean data and ensure accuracy, particularly for intricate portfolios involving DeFi, numerous trades, and multi-wallet transfers. High-net-worth investors considering AI tools should first understand the risks Freeman has identified, then engage expert review before trusting outputs to avoid costly mistakes that could trigger audits, fines, or result in overpayment.

'AI artists' perform improvised jazz at Jarasum Jazz Festival
Artificial intelligence (AI) models developed by a research team led by Korea Advanced Institute of Science and Technology (KAIST) professor Nam Ju-han made their debut at one of Korea’s leading jazz festivals, performing improvised jazz alongside human artists. According to the university Friday, the team showcased human-AI music collaboration technology that analyzes the flow of human performances in real time, allowing AI to take over performances or generate improvised accompaniment, during the 23rd Jarasum Jazz Festival, held in Gapyeong County, Gyeonggi Province, from Oct. 9 to 11. A total of 12 human jazz artists participated in the event, collaborating with AI in 26 pieces across 12 performances. The technology is different from existing music AI services as it enables collaboration with human musicians in jazz, a genre characterized by improvisation. Jazz musicians often change the tempo or create new melodies based on how they feel in the moment. Because the same piece can be performed differently each time, musicians must listen to one another and adjust their playing accord

[INTERVIEW] Alaska Airlines eyes Asia expansion as Korea route gains traction
SEATTLE — Alaska Airlines is looking to expand its presence in Asia as its Incheon-Seattle route gains traction, with Korea emerging as a key market in the U.S. carrier’s expanding international network. The airline recorded load factors of 82 percent in June, 84 percent in July and 79 percent in August on the route, marking a strong start in its first full year of operations. The figures exceeded expectations for a new route, which typically takes about three years to mature as the airline adjusts schedules and connections to meet passenger demand. "Those are really good, strong load factors for the first year of a new route," Shane Tackett, president and chief financial officer of Alaska Airlines, said in an interview with The Korea Times on Sept. 29. He added that one month ranked among Alaska's best-performing international routes financially before fuel prices increased significantly. The airline sees further opportunities to attract passengers from Korea, where its brand remains relatively unfamiliar. Tackett said Alaska Airlines aims to raise awareness of its services and enco
