🔓We discussed the concept of “Agency”, specifically asking, “Is directing the work of a collection of intelligent compute resources easier than keeping a team of humans with their own hopes and motivations working towards the same goal?”
We addressed these questions as well:
✔️ What does it mean for a human to have “agency” and how does this apply in the context of AI?
✔️ What are the considerations to make when deciding to hire a human vs. build an agent to perform a necessary role?
✔️ What can leaders learn about managing agentic teams while building their business considerations, goals and intelligence data?
📣 Listen and watch the replay of our September web/podcast with Crystal and Nikos as they reflected on the challenges of a continuous exchange between human storytelling and machine visualization.
