Ceos and politicians.
Don't know how serious that post is, but I don't wanna give politics to an AI. Let's remove the lobby (or make it so it actually consults and not corrupts) and make it so you don't need to be a millionaire to go into politics instead.
How about replacing the rich class with AI instead? #burntherich
It's serious an AI wouldn't be taking bribes or helping it's buddies make money. True AI if it ever becomes reality is the best chance of treating everyone equally and using resources in the best interests of everyone.
I'm all for being governed by a real AI rather than the next greedy private school entitled jerk.
Same goes for companies and being ethical.
On the flip side, there's no reason to assume an artificial intelligence will share the same priorities as a human being.

I'm not fearmongering AI here (I, for one, welcome our future ai overlords). But we don't really escape the issues of ethics with artificial intelligences. They're still intelligent.
Replacing politicians with AIs actually sounds really cool. Instead of voting, you write an essay on the things you value. An AI reads all their voting base's essays and votes in a way that predominantly aligns with their voter's ideals. This isn't direct or indirect democracy, it's a totally new approach driven by mathematical averages.
Politicians shouldn't negotiate to get something passed. If the senate of AIs doesn't like it, it's unpassable, you just have to write a new bill. No tit for tat, no lobbying, no friends protecting friends. The only people in politics are the ones who write bills, and they can check to see if their bill would pass in a few minutes on a server, and that will be the actual vote because voting is reproducible behavior, then they'll decide if they have to revise it.
