Pale and squishy. Not ruined, just not done.
Summary
This satirical opinion piece humorously argues that Microsoft should replace CEO Satya Nadella with an AI CEO, citing advantages like 24/7 operation, cost efficiency, and data-driven decision making. The article uses exaggerated comparisons to make its point, suggesting AI could outperform human leadership in areas like work hours, compensation costs, and objective analysis.

· 4 pulledSatya Nadella is a brilliant man - visionary, strategic, empathetic, yadda yadda. But in 2025, shouldn't the world's most valuable software company be led by, well... software?
Work hours: Satya works, what, 8-10 hours a day? Maybe 12 if earnings are due. Meanwhile, an AI CEO runs 24/7, doesn't need coffee, doesn't take holidays, and doesn't spend 30 minutes choosing which blue sweater to wear before an interview.
That's nearly three times more productivity, every single day.
Cost efficiency: According to public filings, Satya's compensation package is around $50 million annually. An AI CEO? Maybe $50 in electricity and cloud computing costs.
