Which is funny because they are the most AI replaceable humans in the building. Their entire function is to follow the corporate decision tree to the letter and make sure that all communication upwards gets filtered through their outlook account.

This. Add some agents installed on employee's PC and AI could have exact picture of whole company at any given time, without these weekly managerial meetings - status relays. No politics. No overseeing. If everyone works remote, the better AI is, because all communication channels could be monitored. Perfect estimation, almost perfect allocation of resources.

The point of being the boss is getting to decide who to replace with AI, tbh. The shareholders may not replace you because of relationships/trust/accountability, and also because they don't want to have to be instructing the AI day-to-day (or arguing among themselves about it).

Maybe this will change in the future if AI-run companies emerge, get backing, and outcompete existing players.

A company relying only on AI doesn't have any added value.

What's stopping their customers from using AI directly instead of that company services?
