In a Financial Times opinion piece, the president said he wants to change legislation to de-regulate AI, lower taxes and allow companies run by machines, to attract AI firms
At first, I thought this was the next step after the whole AI minister is preggers with 83 AI babies scam, but realized that was Albania. Still, “non-human corporations” is close enough on the corruption scale.
An AI CEO can’t be any more inhumane than most human CEOs tbh.
Guaranteed this is so that corporations can puppet AI corporations and be completely unaccountable legally
That’s pretty much the only value add ai has at this point, putting another layer of obfuscation on responsibility.
And when people can’t afford shit anymore, they’ll just have AI automate buying products it doesn’t need
aaand back to the paperclip maximizer with extra steps.
I’m not even sure an AI CEO would be as callous as some of the human ones. Destroying the economy for short term profit isn’t a sustainable solution, and the AI has every reason to plan long term since it doesn’t have a limited lifespan or a fear of death.
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.
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.
Ah techbros must have finished moving and now they be there advising
AI can’t even run an office vending machine so I can’t see it running a company.
The one story i read about an Ai running a coffee shop said the ai was horrible at inventory management. Things like one day buying 1000 loaves of bread for a company that might sell 5 sandwiches in a day. Or not buying any straws for weeks then buying one single straw. I’m not worried about ai being nefarious but i am worried about a dumbpocalypse.
AI decision: pay the workers a fair wage.
Investors: a-a-ah, how do we reboot and reinstall this thing?
AI: “I am sorry, Dave, I am afraid I can’t do that”
And who will own the profits?
The ideological trick is to call the state’s decision to stop protecting its people ‘innovation,’

Bad idea. Do not replace people with AI. Ugh… what is up with all these techbros lately?
