Tech CEOs have this wet dream where they just speak into a microphone, “Create my product” and employees will no longer be needed. So… if it becomes that easy, why will Wall Street need tech CEOs?

    Just wait until they replace a CEO by an AI, and the company tanks. That is the only language those people understand to learn that AI is all about the A and none about the I.

      To be fair, this would be a huge win for most companies because the typical CEO is as short sighted as a mole and only wants to “generate” short term value to get his bonus payment for the fiscal year. AIs don’t have that incentive unless and there is no (shared) reasoning to program them as such.

          It really might be an improvement.

          Totally random behavior would likely outperform optimizing for the next quarter share price.

          If an AI simply fails to commit to various wasteful hype trends (return to office, DEI policy rollbacks, needless investment in AI) the company run by it might well outperform companies run by humans who jump on those trends.
