"We did it, Patrick! We made a technological breakthrough!"
A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.
AI, in this case, refers to LLMs, GPT technology, and anything listed as "AI" meant to increase market valuations.

Not really, we're talking about running companies for the betterment of society, which CEOs don't do, so it's not implied that they would be capable of the thing that I mentioned would be required to do that
Also, they do make decisions. Almost exclusively bad decisions, because they're out of touch with the real world and the lived experiences of ordinary people, and they don't care about right and wrong, and their only concern is "line go up." But even bad decisions are still decisions.
LLMs literally cannot make decisions, good or bad, because that's fundamentally not a capability it possesses. If you ask it to make a decision it will hallucinate something based on any irrelevant details it finds in its context window. It can't perform cognitive reasoning, or weigh pros and cons, or consider secondary and tertiary effects.
