All employees become managers when using agentic AI

The proliferation of agentic AI in banking workflows is turning employees at nearly all levels into managers as they work to keep a rein on their agents. AI has advanced beyond question-and-answer models to a point that many employees control or interact with teams of agents, Marco Argenti , chief information officer at Goldman Sachs , said today at the Evident AI Symposium in New York. "Everybody kind of needs to be a manager of agents," he said. "You almost have to be a manager of managers because you have agent orchestrators that in turn are managing agents."

While it used to take employees years to develop those skills, new and younger employees have already developed them because they used agentic AI throughout university, he said. "There is almost no more concept of an individual contributor," Argenti said. "I'm actually very optimistic about this new generation that kind of [are] AI natives because, from a young age, they had to learn that you cannot only depend on yourself to solve a very difficult challenge." Human judgment and oversight remain paramount in this collaboration between humans and agents, he said. "No matter if you are a developer or you are in operations or even driving a business, you are part of a team of agents," Argenti said. "Those agents do a lot of work for you but you remain at the center of that interaction." Register here for early-bird pricing for the FinAi Banking Summit, taking place March 1-2 in Denver.
