What a lovely idea, using AI to automate the rich. It should all be free and open source as well.
Instead of Tim Cook revealing the next iPhone, let's create an AI generated hologram of Steve Jobs to reveal the next iPhone.
- mort96 4y agoCEOs usually get rich, especially tech CEOs or CEOs of major companies in the US. But they're still employees who work for a living. The really rich people are still the investors -- and there's no automating away their work, since they earn money simply through what they own, not what they do. Automating the CEO is probably an excellent way to make the owner class even richer. Which means it will probably happen.
- AndrewKemendo 4y agoMy instinct was to agree but I'm not sure The CEO is the host for the investor parasite - which is why the board chooses the CEO who cares the most about investors Removing this conduit would either: 1. Require the board to actually become the operators they all claim they are (but never prove because "well that's not my job, but my advice should be heeded like god") 2. The Board would invent a new way to monitor productivity but it would be via the more distributed management that hasn't been fully taken over by the parasite 3. Workers organize their own management Seems like all the options are an improvement over the current state of affairs
