Executives are more likely to trust AI over themselves (www.axios.com)

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.

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.

Oh, I am very aware. There are winners and losers for every policy and the important part is making it palatable for the losers.
