Corporate entities
V1 / V2 (→ V3 / V4)
Two models according to who the ultimate carrier of an organization is: V1 (human-managed) — the corporate entity is an instrument; ownership, legitimacy and direction rest on specific persons, and if the leader changes the system may change too. V2 (managed by corporate entities) — continuity lies in the structure, not the individual; people still make the decisions, but the chain of decision is largely organized among corporate entities. V3: corporate entities managed by AI. V4: AGI–corporate entity symbiosis.
