The gradual, eventual, ultimate conclusion killer app of AI is to run the systems, debug apps like an SRE, manage warm datastores, and eventually write app code based on the desires of feedback and requirements descriptions from users, design new programming languages/formats for it, and later design silicon. The curious bit is how product managers will fit into this picture to perhaps supervise what is allowed, only to eventually removed. There's no conceivable job that can't be eaten partially or mostly by AI, if not nearly entirely eaten in the future.
At some region on the technological "singularity" timeline, there will can and will be fully-autonomous corporations. The question is: With corporate personhood, can a corporation exist, pay (some) taxes, reinvest in itself, and legally function without any human owners? This may also be contingent on whether or not a corporation conduct legal and business activities, i.e., if performed by a human agent or through some automated means, even if they were directed by AI management. IANAL, but I guess an autonomous corporation could be sued, and perhaps even the creators of the software used to create the AI that run it could also be potentially at risk.
