Does anyone really buy this stuff? This is just investor bait to make people who don't understand tech impressed. No doubt there's someone in charge of the robot CEO. Watch it hallucinate and have the board ask it the same question 4 times until it says the answer they want.

This is just a PR ploy, to get their company name in the news.

Nothing more. This bot is not making real decisions.

I'm definitely feeling the need for some Drinks Company(tm) products.

the major significant decisions at Dictador will be made by human executives

No, no one really buys it.

Knowing how lazy people are I'm betting a lot of the AI's calls are implemented. Only the really out there ones will get dropped.
