Should We Automate the CEO?

What a lovely idea, using AI to automate the rich. It should all be free and open source as well.<p>Instead of Tim Cook revealing the next iPhone, let&#x27;s create an AI generated hologram of Steve Jobs to reveal the next iPhone.

This turns upside down the standard role of automation in control systems. E.g. the humans sets the temperature on the thermostat controller, or the pilot sets the parameters on the autopilot, but the plane is still under control of the pilot. Automated controllers don’t have goals that aren’t set by controllers above them in the hierarchy. In my opinion it’s definitionally impossible for automation to be the <i>chief</i> executive since there must be someone above setting the goals.

And blame the programmers when things go south<p>We shouldn’t automate anything as long as the general public, or at least the people in charge don’t understand how tech works and “algorithms”

You don&#x27;t even need AI to get rid of CEOs

With a ROI of eleventy bazillion percent per annum, it seems like a no-brainer.

Sure, let&#x27;s automate the CEO. Right after we automate middle management, police, state legislatures, and Congress.
