  • AI Employees Are a Design Decision, Not a Hiring One

    AI Employees Are a Design Decision, Not a Hiring One
    Jan 22 2026

    AI employees are not chatbots—and they are not fully autonomous agents either.

    In this episode, Dr. Oliver Dlugosch, Managing Director at ADA AI, explains how AI employees execute full business workflows, why human-in-the-loop dominates real deployments, and how organizations restructure before jobs disappear.

    We discuss:

    • - Agent-ready processes

    • - Scaling limits driven by humans, not technology

    • - Data quality as an overlooked advantage

    • - Why autonomy claims exceed reality

  • ADA AI: AI Employees Replace Back Office Workflows

    ADA AI: AI Employees Replace Back Office Workflows
    Jan 21 2026

    AI employees are viable now for bounded operational workflows. Dr. Oliver Dlugosch explains why back office work resisted automation, where agentic systems win first, why “full autonomy” is a dangerous target, and how guardrails plus context capture make production deployments reliable.


    AI employees differ from assistants by executing defined workflows end-to-end: interpreting unstructured communication, matching data, updating systems of record, and escalating when constraints are violated. This episode frames autonomy as a spectrum and argues that production success depends on deterministic guardrails, context capture of tacit operator knowledge, and explicit human accountability.

  • When Management Becomes the Bottleneck

    When Management Becomes the Bottleneck
    Jan 20 2026

    Management doesn’t fail because leaders lack intent, talent, or vision.
    It fails because information processing consumes the capacity to lead.

    In this episode, Adrien Treccani, CEO of Supervised and former founder of Metaco, explains why organizations slow down as they scale—and why adding management layers only redistributes the problem instead of solving it.

    Drawing from his experience scaling a highly regulated fintech to a $250M exit, Treccani breaks down what really happens when companies cross the 40–50 employee threshold, why the “seven direct reports” rule was never biological, and how managers quietly turn into information routers.

    The conversation explores:

    • Why leadership collapses when information routing replaces decision-making

    • Why dashboards systematically hide risk and reality

    • Why voice captures what reporting erases

    • Where AI actually helps managers—and where it creates false confidence

    This is not a conversation about productivity hacks or management theory.
    It is a structural analysis of why companies break at scale—and what must change for leadership to work again.
