"These "Agentic Users" will soon have their own email, Teams account, and company ID, just like a regular coworker. "Each embodied agent has its own identity, dedicated access to organizational systems and applications, and the ability to collaborate with humans and other agents," states a Microsoft product roadmap document. "These agents can attend meetings, edit documents, communicate via email and chat, and perform tasks autonomously.""
"Gartner projects that by 2028, 33% of enterprise software applications will incorporate agentic AI, and at least 15% of daily business decisions will be made autonomously by AI agents. If AI employees can soon take over the grunt work no one wants to do, like scheduling and reporting, leaving people to handle the big picture tasks, that's a win, right?"
Microsoft is developing agentic "Agentic Users" that will have email, Teams accounts, and company IDs and can attend meetings, edit documents, communicate via email and chat, and perform tasks autonomously. Each agent will have its own identity and dedicated access to organizational systems and the ability to collaborate with humans and other agents. Gartner forecasts significant enterprise adoption by 2028, with a third of software incorporating agentic AI and at least 15% of daily business decisions made autonomously. Economists report disproportionate impacts on middle management and entry-level workers. Many organizations feel underprepared, and studies warn that inadequate risk controls, unclear business value, and rising costs could cancel a large share of projects, raising questions about supervision, trust, and liability.
