A great quote from Bruce Schneier today:
> AI systems concentrate power at the top, so they could allow an executive to effectuate change over sprawling bureaucracies instantaneously. Firing and replacing tens of thousands of human bureaucrats is a huge undertaking. Swapping one AI out for another, or modifying the rules that those AIs operate by, would be much simpler.
Bosses love the idea that #AI will do what it's told, unlike those pressure humans who protest!
