Summary
Gauthier Cluagh argued that moving from chatbots to autonomous workflows requires using existing permissions and guardrails, especially when agents act through graphical interfaces or APIs. He urged companies to stop measuring AI by pilots, adoption, or use-case counts and instead demand measurable ROI within six or seven weeks.
