Executives are twice as likely as rank-and-file workers to trust AI over their own judgment, per a survey out Wednesday morning.
It’s a worrying development. Leaders are hired for their experience and knowledge.
Outsourcing that to AI raises the risk of making decisions that don’t line up with reality, which then reverberate across companies and beyond.
leaders are hired for their experience and knowledge
Not because they’re Machiavellian wall-climbers?
The statement is correct. Executives aren’t leaders.
Because executives are dumb as fuck
But still, I didn’t think they were aware of it, this is surprising!
Most execs are sociopaths
So let the AI do their jobs and redistribute their compensation to the employees
In capitalism we distribute them to the shareholders. Or the AI’s shareholders. Often the same.
Make the employees shareholders then
It is already doing their jobs. They need to be replaced with people selected from productive non-managerial roles at the workplace and replaced often.
Wouldn’t this be some sign of AI psychosis?
You really can get far in management with charisma, ass-kissing, boundless optimism and ability to take credit on everything. None are really markers for smart or technically minded person, or even a moral one.
Coincidentally, rank-and-file workers are also twice as likely to trust AI over their executives’ judgement.
Yes, sadly in this case, they are in fact correct in assuming the AI has better judgment than themselves. It’s a very low bar to clear.
Executive Dysfunction
Guys this is it, the window we’ve been waiting for! All we need to do is inject pro union pro consumer tax paying sentiment into ai and we’re golden!! Like when they hijacked Rick santonrum’s name in google search…we did it!
Well that about wraps it up for anyone who still believed in the usefulness of executives.
In other words… AI has reached a point allegedly that can now replace executives. So why have them?
Ai would certainly be cheaper, and much less emotionally unstable even given how completely fucked it is.
Because in their heart of hearts they know that they are skillless and worthless
Leaders are hired for their experience and knowledge.

So if it’s better at thinking than they are it renders them redundant
This means they should never use AI because they are uniquely vulnerable to AI disinformation and likely AI pyschosis.
We need a new generation of CEO that can actually think for themselves, as bizarre as that sounds.
We need to move away from CEOs and capitalism.
Agreed, but we need to come up with a better system and convince people to switch.
we just need a critical mass % of people willing to break the current system down, the rest can be dragged along, kicking and screaming all the way
Whatever works at this point, but I think the best way to move forward is to convince the major stakeholders to change by presenting a new paradigm. Something they may not necessarily love, but are willing to accept.
If you think that people currently in power will willingly give it up, you’re beyond naive.
I mean, have you seen the decisions they were making without it? Probably 50:50 on C-staff
closer to the work, you have to trust the workers decisions quite a bit more.
