Javier Milei's proposal of an AI-run company with no humans involved is deeply flawed. Here's why
Javier Milei advocates AI-run corporations, extending limited liability to foster innovation. The author critically argues this overlooks the crucial role of human accountability. Historically, limited liability worked because individuals operating companies faced personal repercussions, ensuring ethical conduct. Milei's proposal removes this essential safeguard. The East India Company demonstrates the perils of unchecked corporate power without human oversight, leading to immense suffering. AI, lacking human motivations like self-preservation, cannot be deterred by conventional penalties. Ultimate responsibility for AI systems must always reside with human creators, preventing escape from consequences.
