You again anthropologizing AI. AI does not have to make everyone busy to look useful like for some human managers, when right priorities are set.

Imagine a manager who knows that company needs in a long term support person even if it's not busy at the moment. Because AI has data of historical precedents and actual calculations. And AI is not acting like a manager who wants to fire you because of gut feeling or possible stock options. Imagine that AI CEO is owned by employees, actual humans who perform the actual work and who benefit from good CEO decisions and most importantly the AI CEO which does not gave to be paid gazilion dolars just to burn the company to the ground and leave with golden parachute. I think there is a good insight that AI has very high bandwidth, that human management does not have, no more 2 week meeting marathons just to get everyone on same page and to get all the inputs.

You’re just describing a company owned by employees who manage themselves. The AI isn’r relevant to your story other than being a proxy and note keeping apparatus for them.
