STEP Panel: How We Restructured Teams When AI Agents Joined the Workforce.

At STEP Summit in San Francisco, Grace Gong moderates a conversation with Michel Tricot, Co-Founder and CEO of Airbyte, Vijay R. of Mayfield, and Dan Klein of Scaled Cognition on how AI agents are reshaping the way companies are structured and how work gets done.The discussion explores what happens when AI agents move beyond being tools and become permanent digital teammates, from who an agent reports to and who is accountable for its decisions, to which roles emerge and disappear, and what happens to middle management when the layer they once managed becomes software.The conversation examines how companies are rethinking reporting lines, roles, and organizational design as AI becomes part of the workforce, and what leaders need to consider as they build teams for the agent era.#ai #step2026 #stepsf #step #vc
