Executives are twice as likely as rank-and-file workers to trust AI over their own judgment, per a survey out Wednesday morning.

It's a worrying development. Leaders are hired for their experience and knowledge.

Outsourcing that to AI raises the risk of making decisions that don't line up with reality, which then reverberate across companies and beyond.

Is there any more evidence needed to show that Managers do not deserve the outrageous pay they've been getting?

    Their decades long usage of consulting companies to be a sycophantic permission giver, since they don't want to bother making well founded good business decisions. "Don't blame me, I hired a consult and they said to do this. If decision was the wrong one, it is the consults fault. Then we hire a consult to figure out what the last consult did wrong. Then consult to consult on the consultation of the second consult on the first consults consultation". Please pay me millions and millions of dollar to be a consult hiring person. Oh and please a golden parachute promise also, in case I need to get fired pronto.

    If one was able to do good decisions on ones own, is confident on those decisions and able to make the arguments to back up the decision, one wouldn't need to hire the consults to be the professional fall guys.

    edit: Oh and I don't know is it really needed, but well it is evidence point that also exists. So they simply changed "consult" to "AI agent"
