Meta spins up AI version of Mark Zuckerberg to engage with employees
- Thread starter JournalBot
- Start date
I’m sure it will work just fine for MZ. I don’t think you can replicate this for humans with a modicum of empathy, intelligence, etc.

Why is this limited to Meta employees? This is what we've all been clamoring for!

A “CEO agent”, so an AI Agent with some of the powers of a CEO...I'm predicting a lot of unexpected raises and RSUs

For Zuckerberg, sure. After all, now he has even less to do. Isn't that how CEO pay is evaluated? The more useless, the more they're paid?

There really isn't much work needed to make an AI sociopathic, so I don't think much testing is necessary.

Eventually it will take over all his correspondences without yelling anyone. His employees will remark on how much more human he's been acting recently.

An AI pretending to be a human that pretends to be an AI that pretends to be a human.. an interesting implementation of the infinite hall effect, Dave.

After who-knows-how-many-billions of additional investment, does this version finally have legs (as in limbs, not momentum.)

A use of AI I can support. 
If he can't get it to act like him, it demonstrates to him directly that the hype is overblown.
If he can, it's either proof CEOs are easily replaced and not worth such high compensation or evidence Facebook can stop paying him by replacing him.
So hopefully big changes ahead!
If the world were rational anyway

Will he be legally responsible for the actions of the Zuckbot? Seems dangerous. Employees sue managers for mis-behavior all the time. How about investors? Customers?
If he is NOT responsible, then who cares what the Zuckbot says? It has no weight, unless you crave a personal relationship with your creepy company leader, and in an extremely creepy fashion. Once the code for this leaks, Zuck will find himself in some compromising positions...

Employess will be able to tell the dfifference because it will be less robotic and may display vestigial traces of empathy

So if it turns out to be less of a greedy morality-free zone than its "dad", will Zuckerberg fire himself? It would save Meta gazillions. Lead by example I say.

That doesn't sound good. An AI Zuckerberg? The man who wasted 88 billion on a Meta universe that nobody wanted? How about just run the business?

So he wants to market this out to other personalities to use.
Scapegoat much?
"I mean, this representative of me, that said the thing, and knows me intimately, was the racist/sexist/corrupt/homophobic one. I, of course, would NEVER say such hurtful things!"
What agency would it even have to act in his stead? We are having problems as a race recognizing one half of our population as having agency as it is. As a board member I'd be worried that the CEO is actively trying to not do his job? Or that I wouldn't know if the idea was from Zuck or Zuckbot? Or if the idea was bad would it be said that Zuckbot just "made a mistake" and "you're the idiot for trusting it then. I said it was in Beta"

A CEO agent seems like an interesting idea IMO. I mean we’re often told that it is impossible to get a good CEO (otherwise how would they command these millions and billions in salaries) but their jobs actually seem mile-wide/inch deep in a way that an LLM can probably do fine at.

You mean there was a human in that skin suit? I thought Zuck as AI this whole time?

There have been studies about this.
TLDR...a team made a virtual Board and Business and had either a human or a LLM CEO run it. The LLM got higher returns and greater shareholder value--because it was even more psychopathic and indifferent to line-workers than the human CEO. It was also a lot cheaper. But most CEOs are compensated in stock options and not cash.
