Mayank Kejriwal argues that enterprise AI agent adoption faces significant obstacles beyond raw technical capability, citing the Remote Labor Index’s finding of only 2.5% real-world automation despite impressive demos. He recommends organizations pursue limited pilots with read-only access and explicit human oversight rather than rapid deployment, warning that costs can escalate unpredictably without proper controls. Kejriwal contends successful adoption requires treating the shift as organizational redesign that balances employee concerns about surveillance and job loss against leadership ambitions.
