Managing AI agents presents complex challenges as these tools shift from personal productivity enhancers to shared team resources. The scale of AI adoption is massive, with nearly 80% of organizations using AI and 41% of US workers using it five or more days weekly, yielding significant productivity gains like teachers saving six weeks annually.

  • AI adoption follows a pattern: individual usage leads to sharing, creating an accidental service provider situation.
  • Most popular AI platforms weren't designed for a collaborative, high-stakes work environment.
  • Organizations typically hit management bottlenecks within six months of adoption.
  • New organizational structures are emerging with a clear division between business owners and technical support.
  • Organizations should audit their AI dependencies by mapping which agents are being used and what breaks if they go down.
