Executive Summary
The age of artificial intelligence (AI) ushers in a revolution with an exponential scale unmatched by any other technology revolution to date. As humanity grapples with what it means to be human, expect a transformation in mission and purpose as pyramids move to diamonds and then back to smaller pyramids of control. Highly effective tiny teams will be nimbler than their billion-dollar legacy behemoths.
As a result, organizations now have the power to build at the speed of thought and operate with massive span of control via decision automation. The difference between successful AI natives and AI exponentials will be how well they succeed in achieving decision velocity.
Legacy organizations caught between two S-curves must quickly determine whether they should start from scratch and migrate or attempt to modernize their technical debt within their existing organizational structures. The organizations embracing agentic AI will make the key architectural shift required to have an attacker’s advantage. Leaders can expect future pricing models to move away from per-seat pricing to outcomes-based models in this brave new world.
