The AI CEO

Within 2 years, AI will be better at running most businesses than humans. This includes both setting the strategy, and executing on it.

There are certain types of business more amenable to the AI CEO - namely software businesses that operate mainly online.

In the beginning, the AI CEO will run businesses that make $10 - $100k ARR. These businesses are simpler, have lower expectations from users, and often just perform simple SaaS functions.

‍But over time, foundation models and agents will improve, and the AI CEO will run larger and larger businesses more competently than most humans could.
