Session Abstract

What happens when we stop thinking of AI agents as tools—and start thinking of them as teammates? In this session, we’ll explore the shift from traditional, linear workflows to community-led, autonomous systems where agents and humans collaborate in shared leadership models. You’ll learn: • The philosophical and practical differences between delegating to humans vs. agents • How autonomous agents can take initiative, adapt, and contribute to team goals • The role of community-led orientation in designing agents that align with collective values and goals • Real-world patterns for task delegation, feedback loops, and trust-building with AI agents We’ll also discuss how to design agents that are not just reactive, but proactive—capable of participating in a team’s mission, not just executing instructions. This session is ideal for developers, designers, and leaders interested in the future of collaborative AI.
