The rollout of large-scale, broadly useful AI agent software is just about to begin. We can expect to see agent models become far more prevalent in the second half of this year and in 2025. However, the sociological aspects of such changes are not to be minimized. Humans, in many cases, may prefer to work with and support other humans. Other market changes will need to take place in order to most efficiently employ AI agents. For example, AI agents are less likely to be persuaded by Web marketing than are humans. In sum, while in some career paths and job classifications AI will be implemented very soon, in most areas, the current infrastructure and entrenched practices will take months and years to change in order to take full economic advantage of GenAI.
