Had not heard about Gunn's appointment and rather concur with you. The difference I think in Guardians is that it still had to operate within the Marvel framework, so his wasn't the last word there. What it sounds like though is that he is going to become DC's Kevin Feige. So it seems to me that personality, hiring and organizational skills are going to matter a lot.
I also think it's odd how robots always want to become like us. There's a lot less talk about how humans want to become cyborgs (and it tends to horrify a lot of people). Of course given that mechanical life is inevitably going to be derived from human goals and foibles, I suspect it would take many generations for there to be a uniquely mechanical culture.
