"AI CEO" Steve runs 3 acquired firms; critics note it's Monte Carlo planning over code, not pure LLM

The startup behind "Steve" claims it's the world's first AI CEO for fully autonomous companies, powered by world models, recursive self-learning, a policy engine, and specialist agents. The team says Steve already runs 3 acquired businesses and is launching a $2M program to buy 5 more startups for Steve to automate. Resharing it, @xuanalogue highlights the key technical detail: Steve uses Monte Carlo planning over a business-dynamics model written in code, rather than relying entirely on LLMs to plan.
