    While it’s probably the single easiest job to offload onto AI we will need actual humans to take the fall for the boards decisions for the foreseeable future.

    “We deleted the software responsible for our most recent ecological disaster” doesn’t have the same weight as firing an actual person.

      That just creates a new job! I can be the “fire guy!”

      People can employ me just to fire me when the AI fucks up. Lol

      The only thought that went through my mind reading the last bit. Is there really that much difference between firing a CEO and deleting an AI? Deleting the AI would save us the cost of the golden parachute…

        Firing a person is the punishment, haven’t you been paying attention to … gestures broadly

      It’s a lot cheaper than the golden parachutes.

        don’t get me wrong, the picosecond they can they will. it’s just not feasible while the public requires a scapegoat or the people actually responsible might need to avoid West 54th.
