"AI CEOs generate thought leadership at the push of a button

Delivering total nonsense, with complete confidence."

The real top boss is the Chairman of the Board of Directors, although the Chairman is often appointed CEO, it doesn't always happen. The Board of Directors is made up of large shareholders - the people who actually own the company. The CEO is technically just an employee and needn't own any shares at all (although that would be extremely abnormal).

So, there may actually be a time when a corporation's Board decides to use an "AI" as their CEO to cut costs.
