Why the Next Manager Could Be an AI Agent
Towards Data Science
EDITOR BRIEF
The excerpt argues that future managers may be autonomous AI systems rather than people. It says middle management could turn into a protocol, and that the current AI stack is not enough for agents to run a business. It also points to new systems that would need to be built for that to work.
INSIGHTS
For learners, this shows why agent design and systems thinking matter in AI. A good next step is to study how autonomous agents coordinate tasks, store shared state, and make decisions reliably.
