The chip will, unfortunately for the recipient, make them controllable by the AI/demon. However, there has been a (deliberate, I think) trend for the worst workers to rise to "leadership" in companies. I'd guess a large number of people in this country LOATHE their bosses and would welcome the thought of being free of them.
The answer, I think, is to exit corporate employment. Only people who are already dead would accept the chip. Make or do something that directly provides something valuable to actual men and women. Plant a garden and stop shopping in the stores that require masked workers and masked employees. Don't be an "employee" (hireling/slave).
