TopCat AI Signal Report #70
The strongest signal today is that AI is becoming a workforce layer.
Not a replacement for every person.
Not a magical employee with unlimited authority.
But a new layer of delegated capacity inside the business.
That could mean an agent that prepares first drafts for customer support.
An agent that gathers research before a sales call.
An agent that checks documents against a policy.
An agent that organizes leads, summarizes conversations, routes tickets, or prepares a human decision-maker with the right context.
The firms moving ahead are not necessarily using AI everywhere. They are delegating specific work in ways that can be repeated, monitored, and improved.[openai]
That is the difference between using AI and operationalizing AI.
