Everyone is talking about AI agents, autonomous programmes that can solve problems and work towards their goals independently. You can even have teams of agents working for you. But, is the anthropomorphism of AI a good thing? These are just computer programs after all?
We don’t know what the future will look like, but we do know that the way we work is changing. When our work changes our teams change, and as our teams change our organisations will change. We’re living through an age of experimentation and discovery, where we need to look at some of our assumptions about “what good looks like” and challenge if they’re still valid.
Let’s get nerdy about org design and discuss how AI could change how we set ourselves up for success, whatever our mission.
