Why not use AI to automate away the board of directors and the shareholders?
It should be entirely possible. We just need an AI capable of generating its own capital, then the investor class can be removed from the loop.
- hnfong 4y agoThis sounds horrible. You’re basically saying you want everyone to work for companies controlled by AI.
- XorNot 4y agoWhy? An AI when told "follow local labor laws" is actually going to do it perfectly. Whereas those boards of executives are very happy not doing it. A workers co-op owned company headed by an AI decisioning board would be able to maintain constant, real time feedback and coordination with all workers, and would be faster and more maneuverable then human headed companies.
