This Finnish company just made an AI part of the management team

Finnish software and services company Tieto has become the first company registered on a Nordic stock exchange to promote an AI to a senior management position. Tieto made it's AI, called Alicia T., a member of the management team for its new data-driven business unit. The new business unit aims to develop new business models and services for customers based on the ever-increasing availability of data - and for that purpose aritificial intelligence may prove very useful. The idea isn't only to show off the machine as a symbolic figurehead for the business division, but also that Alicia will help the leadership group to see data-based solutions that might otherwise elude the team. In recognition of the advisory function, Alicia is considered a full-member and even has voting rights.
