CEO Uses AI to Create Fantasy Board of Directors
Matt Blumberg, the CEO of Markup AI, has created an AI-powered fantasy board of directors.
This board includes famous figures like Warren Buffett, Steve Jobs, and Oprah Winfrey.
The idea came from wanting broader perspectives than a traditional board could offer.
The team created detailed profiles for each figure using AI, which took only a couple of hours.
Blumberg uses this fantasy board to get feedback on business decisions, presentations, and even his own performance.
He sees it as a helpful tool but not a replacement for a real board.
His actual board members were positive about the idea and saw it as a nice addition to their thought process.
