    This seems over engineered. I’m pretty sure a simple program that just replies “yeah sure” to anyone from the right department asking about something would outperform most CEOs.

      The classic…

      Middle-manager: We have 3 options, but only enough resources to finish 1, which one should we prioritize?

      CEO: These are all great! I look forward to seeing the final version of all 3 next week.

      The primary role of the CEO is to solicit cheap lending from banks. A simple program can’t do that. You need a real human being at the business with another real human being who was friends with that first human being in college and who now works as a broker at a big financial institution to stamp the loan.

      This is every billionaire’s path to power. Not via what they know but who they know.
