These structures have evolved over decades or centuries, and their dismantling carries significant risks.
I don’t see my recommendations as advocating for a “dismantling”—it’s more like an “augmenting.”
I’m not at all recommend we move to replace our top executives with AIs anytime soon. I’m not sure if/when that might ever be necessary.
Rather, I think we could use AIs to help assist and oversee the most sensitive parts of what already exists. Like, top executives and politicians can use AI systems to give them advice, and can separately work with auditors who would use advanced AI tools to help them with oversight.
In my preferred world, I could even see it being useful to have more people in government, not less. Productivity could improve a lot in this sector, but also, this sector still seems like a very important one relative to others, and perhaps expectations could rise a lot too.
> I guess part of my point is that there is a big difference between alignment with the decision-maker and the quality of decision-making.
I agree these are both quite separate. I think AI systems could help with both though, and would prefer that they do.
