I’m not comfortable with them driving or making movies, why the fuck would I want one leading?
That being said, the C-suite is WELL overdue for a taste of their own medicine.
Most C-suits I've encountered are not competent so an LLM replacing them would probably not be worse than the current state we are in.
This one right here. A) They already work at this crazy abstracted layer and B) They are often ... yeah... um, either not competent or out of touch - Nepotism and cronyism has run wild in corporate America at least.
My partner and I often joke about this - That LLMs would do a better job than current execs. We both work at a layer where we still have to do work based on very specific, rigid criteria (I'm in systems, she's in contracts), but still both high enough that we have contact with C-suite. It's bonkers how crazy and not-good these people are, and we've each worked for a few companies at the layer we are at... it's fairly consistent.
Edit: Just as an anecdote: One of my companies brought on a C-suite who came from another large company and another one before that and another one before that. He was terrible, but this was expected - his whole schtick is to come into that position in companies and figure out the most cutthroat ways to outsource, which leaves those departments in massive disarray but makes the company more money in the short term, then he jettisons away to another company. It's bad out there. Oh right, and he proselytized Christianity in meetings... that was weird.
