AI can’t replace genuine 1:1 human interaction. We’re social animals, and a machine pretending to be a human can’t engender the same emotional response as another human.

But how much of a CEO’s job requires 1:1 human interaction? If I as a software developer am to be told I can do fine without human meetings to discuss product requirements, why can’t CEOs?

If CEOs are going to start claiming that a core role of their job is emotional inspiration as a result of all those all hands meetings they’re going to be surprised how much laughter they get in return.

		> If CEOs are going to start claiming that a core role of their job is emotional inspiration as a result of all those all hands meetings Oh hell no. That's not where the value lies. You can't send an AI CEO as part of a trade delegation. Sending an AI to close the deal doesn't tell the other party that you're there to make sure the deal happens. That's the sort of thing a human CEO does that an AI can't.

If this were so obviously true there wouldn't be nearly so much concern about people having relationships with AIs.

It CAN replace all that corporate lingo bullshit. And that would be great.
