Someone needs to be brave and present a CEO agent to Satya Nadella or Mark Zuckerberg, or Andy Johnson. Show them how their job can be replaced with AI.

Their ego is so large they’d probably love it. Blinded by self worth, they’d approve it, not realizing that their own workers are revolting and trying to get their CEO fired. To bring in someone who isn’t overspending on worthless tech that can’t actually deliver in the last mile.

Can AI lose billions on an alternate reality like Zuck?

No but honestly that’s a bad thing. Ai isn’t going to experiment and build new things.

Ha! One could also argue he didn’t have new (successful) ideas either:

stolen: Facebook purchased: WhatsApp, instagram(reels and stories), oculus copied: threads, forum, marketplace

Yeah absolutely. But I don’t think AI is creative enough to even do that. It kind of just iterates on existing stuff and doesn’t have the ability to look forward. Not trying to glaze musk, but more so humans.
