Like every technology before it, agentic AI will not entirely eliminate the need for human involvement. With that being said, agentic AI will change the nature of human involvement quite dramatically. As such, strategic change management will be critical in order for organizations to prepare their employees for shifting processes, workflows, and responsibilities. Ultimately, the goal should never be full autonomy at any cost. Instead, the more we can seek to make teams’ lives easier, freeing them up for more meaningful and fulfilling work, the more we will see the true benefits of agentic AI.
Ready or not, here it comes
Valid as these concerns may be, agentic AI is coming. The convergence of advanced AI models, cloud-native infrastructure, and a pressing need for digital agility makes agentic AI far too advantageous to go overlooked. Organizations are already clamoring for this technology, and that trend will only gain momentum as agentic models become more sophisticated, accessible, and battle-tested.
I am confident that open source will be instrumental in this journey, ensuring that innovation remains transparent, inclusive, and accountable, while preventing any undue risks. By combining the power of autonomous systems with the principles of open collaboration, we can create a smarter future that works for everyone.
