It makes a lot more sense to replace CEOs with AI. They can hold a lot of context at once, can access company data instantly, and probably would cost an order of magnitude less.

- ashumz 4mo agoIn theory, yes. In practice, AI is not great at influencing momentum which is what the best CEOs are best at.
- lambdaone 4mo agoWhat practice? I'd like to see non-trivial uses of this outside scenarios other than this [0] which even now seems to show slow but steady improvements over time.

- meerita 4mo agoYes. Processing information is one thing. Creating momentum among investors, employees, partners, and customers who often want different things is another.
- malandin 4mo agoThought about it quite a bit. The responsibility is something your need a human to bear. Once we can sue an AI agent, the CEOs will be gone, lol
