If AI ends up running companies better than people, won’t shareholders demand the switch? A board isn’t paying a CEO $20 million a year for tradition, they’re paying for results. If an AI can do the job cheaper and get better returns, investors will force it.
And since corporations are already treated as “people” under the law, replacing a human CEO with an AI isn’t just swapping a worker for a machine, it’s one “person” handing control to another.
That means CEOs would eventually have to replace themselves, not because they want to, but because the system leaves them no choice. And AI would be considered a “person” under the law.
At its face value, base elements are not enormously complicated. But we can’t even properly model any element other than hydrogen, it’s all approximations because quantum mechanics is so complicated. And then there’s molecules, that are even more hopelessly complicated, and we haven’t even gotten to proteins! By comparison our best transistors look like toys.
