Companies rushing to adopt AI tools are missing the real blocker: organizational structures built on distrust and centralized control. Title-gated information, slow approval chains, and management bloat prevent employees from acting with speed and autonomy. The argument is that AI agents won't fix velocity problems — what companies need is to give employees genuine agency: access to context, freedom to make decisions, and accountability for outcomes. The post suggests prototyping flat, high-autonomy teams with aggressive targets rather than attempting a full org overhaul, and warns that employees must also be ready to accept the responsibility that comes with greater autonomy.
