I appreciate the sentiment (Fuck CEOs) but find the idea of taking orders from an AI that is also in charge of steering the direction of the company devastatingly horrific.
One thing that academic (not for profit) ai researchers understand is that computers cannot make management decisions, as a computer cannot take responsibility when things go wrong the way a person can. This is already an issue for traffic violations for “self driving” cars piloted by foreign labor overseas.
To be fair, neither can a CEO. When is the last time you saw a CEO take responsibility for anything going wrong? They've always got someone or something else to blame. A LLM can blame others for things going wrong just as effectively as any CEO.
Given that AIs are demonstratably incapable of successfully operating a vending machine for more than about a week, sounds like a great time to start a competitor.
