- _AzMoo 3mo agoA CEO's job isn't the one that everybody here apparently thinks it is. A CEO's job is networking, marketing and PR. They get paid the way they do because they can get into the rooms they need to get into to build the inter-business relationships they need to build.
- phoghed 3mo agoSo you’re saying that what makes them able to be a CEO is that they became a CEO
- _AzMoo 3mo agoThat's right. Obviously they need to build a network before they become a CEO, but that's what Ivy League's, family connections, and exclusive private schools are for.
- SpicyLemonZest 3mo agoYes, but the way you're phrasing it suggests there's something getting lost in translation. A CEO's job is to perform the role of CEO: when the head of engineering wants to zig, and the head of marketing wants to zag, they need to choose between the two in a way that leaves no question about what the decision is or whether the direction should be followed. I don't think people would obey an AI oracle in that way, I certainly wouldn't.
- ForHackernews 3mo ago>I don't think people would obey an AI oracle in that way You clearly haven't encountered the large group of people who trust hallucinated LLM output more than their coworkers.
- SpicyLemonZest 3mo agoWhen they like the output, sure. I've never had any luck convincing them to change course by showing that I can prompt an LLM to say something else.

- pdpi 3mo agoAI can’t replace genuine 1:1 human interaction. We’re social animals, and a machine pretending to be a human can’t engender the same emotional response as another human.
- fidotron 3mo ago> a machine pretending to be a human can’t engender the same emotional response as another human. If this were so obviously true there wouldn't be nearly so much concern about people having relationships with AIs.
- afavour 3mo agoNo, that’s why there is a concern. They’re replacing human relationships with things that superficially look like human relationships but have no depth.
- fidotron 3mo agoNo, that's other people being concerned, it's not the people in the relationships that are concerned. The position was "a machine pretending to be a human can’t engender the same emotional response as another human" and quite clearly to some people it can, so the statement is false.
- afavour 3mo agoBut how much of a CEO’s job requires 1:1 human interaction? If I as a software developer am to be told I can do fine without human meetings to discuss product requirements, why can’t CEOs? If CEOs are going to start claiming that a core role of their job is emotional inspiration as a result of all those all hands meetings they’re going to be surprised how much laughter they get in return.
- drstewart 3mo ago>But how much of a CEO’s job requires 1:1 human interaction? Basically all of it > If I as a software developer am to be told I can do fine without human meetings to discuss product requirements, why can’t CEOs? Because your job is different than a CEO (and it's also not true for your job)
