I mean, of all the jobs AI can replace, isn't CEO pretty much the easiest one to do? 

Just get it to troll LinkedIn for all the crazy shit these people spew and get it to buzzword it's way into a job.

A huge part of what ceo's actually do is provide a human to take responsibilty for organization risk and to be legally responsible for org activities. Until AI's are legally ruled to be human and able to take personal responsibility in this way there's not going to be much point in it.

Basically someone else becomes legally responsible and they usually would rather have the CEO take this than someone on the board or a larger shareholder.

That way when it goes full Enron or even just Wellsfargo, they can throw the CEO under that bus.

Well, I, for one, would NEVER hope you get hit by a bus.

Have you tried Google’s AI? Consistently terrible. I say they stay the course making failure products to offset the daily billions they make advertising gambling to children.

They own deep mind, a company where the ceo was given a Nobel peace prize for making an ai that can do protein folding. Plus they have the biggest data set for ai to learn from.
