Framework
Agents With a Human
The org chart flip at the center of the company.
How it works
- 1No task in the company can be assigned to a human; the software locks it out.
- 2Tasks go to personal agents and functional agents for product, support, and development.
- 3The agent decides when human judgment is worth the interruption.
- 4The company keeps shipping while the founder sleeps.
