I read a pretty convincing article title and subheading implying that the best use for so called "AI" would be to replace all corporate CEOs with it.
I didn't read the article but given how I've seen most CEOs behave it would probably be trivial to automate their behavior. Pursue short term profit boosts with no eye to the long term, cut workers and/or pay and/or benefits at every opportunity, attempt to deny unionization to the employees, tell the board and shareholders that everything is great, tell the employees that everything sucks, ...
Then some hackers get in and reprogram the AI CEOs to value long term profit and employee training and productivity. The company grows and is massively profitable until some venture capitalists swoop in and kill the company to feed from the carcass.
If your company is successful, that's gonna happen anyway.
when workers go on strike, they call in the police, strikebreakers, National Guard, even bomb whole neighborhoods – but when a CEO takes a week off, no one even notices …
Like that time in Ireland when the banks closed to protest a law and life went on just fine without them.
Most CEOs could be automated with a random number generator that runs on a combustion engine fueled by burning dollar bills.
