A corporation is already a profit-maximizer with decision-making so distributed it’s practically an egregore. Why not see if LLMs trained on management books can do management better than humans?
The idea of stock ownership of an LLM corporation is interesting, and the CEO-bot won’t need a salary or golden parachute.
Anthropic tried this: they tasked Claude with running a vending machine in their office twice (#1, #2). In #1 it operated at a net loss, in #2 it eventually managed a small profit, until it was introduced to employees outside Anthropic, then it went bankrupt (suspiciously, Anthropic doesn’t include that on their blog).
I predict a bigger issue is that today’s LLMs are too suggestible: if an LLM were “officially” put in charge of a real company with real money, it would be a human or group unofficially running it. LLMs are still getting jailbroken, even Fable was allegedly 24 days ago when Anthropic universally suspended access. I also believe LLMs also struggle with high-level open-ended tasks, evidenced by their creative writing and software architecture.
But as LLMs get smarter and less easy to jailbreak, I’m interested to see more an LLM-run experiments, and I do think they have the potential to be much better leaders than humans.
