From this post: https://hexbear.net/post/2063160. The whole comments thread is gold, this guy is on a reply streak.

Someone get him on the lathe, let's see more CEOs getting held personally liable.

Also, bonus points that this guy can take time away from his busy day of running a company to post on IGN comment threads, really speaks to the important work he's doing.

    What Al cannot do today, one day it can. It does not die, does not get sick, does not forget, does not require benefits, childcare, vacation days, sick days, does not have to meet EEOC guides, does not complain, does not create discord within the company, will never go on strike, and does not need 1...

    I gotta be honest... as someone that has worked in games for the last 6 years as a Narrative Designer, and having worked with Al on a project recently and it not going well (I wish I could say more, but I'm under NDA)... there is no job Al is better suited for now and in the future than a C-suite executive

    CEOs either take the highest salary or profits. Both of which an Al can push back into the company. Executives are highly risk adverse, as Al is programmed to be Executives are also data-driven because they're so risk adverse, which is literally how Al functions at its most base level. What we call Al does not understand the words it writes or the data it interprets. It "learns" to mimic the highest probable expectation based on what it has "learned", which, no offense, is exactly what C- Suite management AAA games especially are too unwieldy for an executive to have any creative input unless they dedicate 20 hours a day to it like Swen Vicke, who ALSO represents a non-public company meaning Larian did not have to go through stupid layoffs when interest prices went up like every other company did. COO, CEO, even CFO, they are all managing expectations and following expected probability, which is genuinely the only future for Al. It does not understand how to innovate, which is fitting because the vast majority of executives do not understand it either.

    You've made an amazing argument for why you should step down and let an Al do your jobl

    Unfortunately, through all of that and its worthiness, the fact remains: A defendant must be present in court. A real person. Besides the lawyer, and the lawyer could be Al Bottom line end all, someone takes the fall. Of any of the board members, that will be the one the board voted as its Chief Executive. It's really that simple.
