Michael Lee likens the current AI advancements to the next industrial revolution, emphasizing the need to reorganize organizations to leverage technology's full potential. He contrasts this with simply providing employees with AI tools, advocating instead for a fundamental rethinking of organizational structures to adapt to AI's capabilities.
“So, like, if you take a giant step back, you know, when we think about what's happening with AI today, we think we're living through the equivalent of the next industrial revolution.”
“And, you know, what we generally see in most enterprises, what I typically see from a lot of the software companies that are producing AI agents today, is this giant push to give small machines to every human at the assembly line. And to speed up work.”
“But as you know, when you have machines that can work 24/7, that can scale with electricity, that can accomplish what no individual human or group of humans can do. The right answer is to think about how do you start to reorganize what an organization should be to meet the opportunity of what's available to you with technology.”
