the old guard also got over rolled by the algo heavy media like TikTok or X... they don't effectively engage on these channels. young Japanese people don't own TVs

Ask HN: For what do we need a CEO in the age of AI?

martin_henk — Sat, 30 Aug 2025 12:03:41 +0000

Just wondering... How much value do CEOs add actually? They get a lot more money for sure. But what's the value? They give some vague direction that gets anyways refined more downstream. Could be replaced by AI no problem. Also, would justify the high cost of data centers. I'd say boards better invest in a awesome LLM and some kind of angelists.

Especially working in cloud environments is so cumbersome... Sync to the cloud is great, but we lost these kind of tools that just make life so much easier when handling many files and such

Nissan has launched its very cheap EV called Sakura around 2 or 3 years ago? Should hover around the same price point and can be ordered with ProPilot 2 as a option I think

WFH only is low quality experience for me. No close bonding. Just zoom calls. Hybrid/Flex is the way to go I think. No need to be in the office 100%, but show up if you can.
