Can AI be used to automatically fill out any kind of form?


Some (most?) people hate filling out forms. Maybe AI combined with a growing database of personal data can be used to fill out any kind of form?

Of course, the user would need to review it and make corrections before signing it. But this could make filling out forms less painful and the AI would improve over time.

Worth mentioning how sites thwart spammers by including 'hidden fields'. Typically a bot would try to fill out every field, including hidden ones. All a program has to do is check for the population of hidden fields, and bang: they're a bot.
