We'd probably be better off replacing 90% of CEOs with AI.
Or just one of those magic 8 balls to make decisions
So we are still replacing 90% of them then?
No, apparently just one of the 8-balls :(
Remember the magic meatball episode of Rocko's modern life?
Only if the money that would have paid the CEO went back to the workers... But I think we all know it would go to the board and shareholders.
Does that mean we're going to start holding CEOs accountable?
We can only hope.
Please no. :(
The CEO role is mostly about doing what you are told by shareholders. Last thing you want to do is remove the final limitations of a conscience from the position. An AI for ceo'ing will be optimised to be evil. More evil than the average psychopathic/narcissistic/Machiavellian CEO.
edit: Downvoters might wanna learn to read more thoroughly. I'm saying CEOs have almost no conscience. I'm not saying they have more than a narc/psycho/machi level of conscience, I'm saying they have a tiny tiny scrap of it(rarely), which the AI will not have.
Oh, I hate to break it to you...
So just like a human CEO
Would probably save more money.
So then start your own company and try it
As if everyone with a cool idea can just whip up a company from scratch
sorry the company store is all out and they don't expect a new shipment of companies until next thursday
