    Predicted by the Twilight Zone

    ETA Yeah, our C-Suite employees are very rich nowadays, so much that it’s difficult for them to not fail upwards when they make stupid (or harmful) decisions.

    Also human upper management and owners resent their own workforce, hence RTOs, efforts to micromanage them, denial of breaks and so on, all of which drastically reduce morale and productivity. This figures in to the hope that AI will replace human workers (almost) entirely, even if AI systems require more cost and maintenance and are less reliable.

    But we don’t train AI based on logic, rather we train it on what’s been done before, hence, for example, predictive policing programs carry the same racial biases that the human-run justice system does, on which they are based. So AI executives may carry the same resentment-fueled policies that their human counterparts do.

    Also if they’re entirely advisory, well, C-suite folk are not great at listening to advice. They tend to believe they’re the smartest guy in the room.
