Same document, section about Shareholders.
There's no such thing. There COULD be something like shareholders voting on smthing and those votes are binding, but the agenda is declared by the company and can be only shiet like dividends rate, certain acquisitions, etc. Not the company strategy itself.
Ah so it's the classic "but my hands are forced to do the machine's bidding" then goes on to do the thing they really wanted to do while their hollow appeal to authority is still echoing.
I believe it's one of the things corpos love about AI so much - it can be used as a stochastic authority to excuse their behaviour. And if they don't like what it extrudes? Well they can just shake up the inputs and run it again, until they get what they want.
