I think we're within 2-3 years of our first fully AI CEO.

As in, board of investors removes their last human CEO, and pays an AI company for an AI that does a job of the CEO at a fraction of a percentage of the cost.

And then one year after that is evidence than an AI CEO outperforms human CEO's.

My understanding is the most "useful" thing a CEO typically does is schmooze with other rich assholes. A lot of companies need funding, and a lot of funding is handed out based on vibes. A good CEO makes friends with the assholes handing out money. That's hard to replace with AI, probably.

On the other hand, CEOs routinely make stupid decisions. Maybe cutting that out makes up for the loss in funding opportunities?

Also this capitalist hellscape sucks. labor should unite instead of letting business idiots take most of the value they create.

That's kinda my line of thinking - it's all based on vibes, and AI actually has better vibes in the view of most people than your average CEO.

Yeah it's not gonna schmooze in the traditional sense, but it will introduce itself as the smartest and most competent amalgamation of the best and most successful CEO's in history, with none of the weaknesses or greed or vice of a human CEO.

I bet investors will jump on pretty quick for the first AI CEO, and more companies will follow after.
