Yesterday when I was driving back home, I was talking with my wife about how in some companies, mediocricy gets promoted no matter what. Interestingly, through the conversation in lots of cases those people in charge are there because they are friends of, or liked by someone inside but not based at all on experience or skills. That got me thinking that nowadays most companies can have real-time metrics about the goals to achieve and how they are performing against those KPIs. Suddenly I realized that lots of middle-managers will be not required anymore because in general that "management" could be done by AI. Assuming AI will not have any bias, that's impossible and we know it, that friendly/endogamic game might end? What do you think? Could AI reduce or even remove endogamic jobs? BIG NOTE: I don't like AI handling and managing people, but I can see this as a possible future. Actually, I think this would not be possible in EU in order to protect employees.

Already heard twice: AI will generate the output and a human will validate it. So we could have fewer middle managers. Follow up question is if we need to drastically change who is being promoted

The core question for me is if AI would change how some elitism is built in companies. If we trust AI for giving us non-biased solutions for the company, then, the promotions would be fair (which again, I don't believe at all because that's impossible as all AIs have been trained already on biased content). Would AI move towards a meritocracy? Where are the feelings of people in this equation? How can we add those into the mix so AI can create a healthy work environment?
