I don’t agree. The company will still be owned by humans and AI will always be controlled by humans in some way. It will have the assignment to put (short-term) profit above everything else and it will do so in ways a human couldn’t have imagined, which will be the horrible stuff that is happening today and on top of that everything the AI will think of.
It will also be easier for the owner to detach themselves from the heinous actions of the company, since it is the AI making the decisions. This will cause any decision that is made with the last shred of humanity from these CEO’s to fall in the direction of maximising profits instead.
This will surely pave the way for the dystopian society that we all fear is coming.

AI equally has no reason to plan long term because it has no thoughts or feelings of any kind. No desires, no beliefs, no goals, no fears. All those science fiction stories you grew up with where AI is a computer that is a person? We still don’t have that in real life.
