5) This is not a support community.
It is not a place for 'how do I?', type questions.

Yes. It might be unorthodox at first, but they could just take a vote, and poof, done.
Wat?
No. What?
So you just used circular logic to make the AI a "person"... maybe you're saying once it is running the corporation, it is the corporation? But no.
Anyway, corporations are "considered people" in the US under the logic that corporations are, at the end of the day, just collections of people. So you can, say, go to a town hall to voice your opinion as an individual. And you can gather up all your friends to come with you, and form a bloc which advocates for change. You might gain a few more friends, and give your group a name, like "The Otter Defence League." In all these scenarios, you and others are using your right to free speech as a collective unit. Citizens United just says that this logic also applies to corporations.
CEOs wouldn't have to "replace themselves" any more than you have to find a replacement if your manager fires you from Dairy Queen.
