I started many of my lectures during the fall with one simple question: Would an AI manager be better or worse than your current boss?
People squirm. There’s nervous laughter. (Especially when the boss is in the room.) Everyone’s first instinct is to shake their head. No way. An AI can’t be a better leader than a human. That’s just not possible.
But we need to sit with this question a bit longer and ponder it a bit more.
