You don't need custom built anything, ChatGPT could generate corporate initiatives and PR statements all day and no one would notice.

100% been saying this for a while now. the main thing AI will be able to replace is a C suite.

it's kind of like saying like you could replace a king with an AI. the position is a relationship to power more than it is a function with a productive output.

a bad king and a bad CEO could be replaced with a spinning top with no loss in productivity (and maybe some gain).

maybe this is the way forward. Imagine how many tokens one could burn given C suite salaries.

I think it will handle communication between the C suit and the underlings.

I still remember when I used ChatGPT the first time to write an email. I thought to myself “Oh. This sounds like 99% of the corporate communication from above”. We were joking that corporate had BossGPT for years and just didn’t tell anybody.

It also made me realize that most the so called “creatives” in marketing and PR also just repeat variations of the same few templates. Not much real creativity there.

Our CEO bragged about him "just building stuff" now (vibe coding) while outsourcing his other tasks to AI.

I don't think that's the flex he thinks it is.

The hallucinations would be a feature in this case.

and people actully MIND if your CEO is a liar.

But AI is expected to lie^H^H^H hallucinate
