Autonomous

Why the Fittest Businesses Embrace AI-First Strategies and Digital Labor

About this book

A compelling roadmap to building an autonomous business, best positioned to win, using digital labor powered by Agentic and physical AI

An autonomous business is designed to be AI-first in its strategies and operations to maximize value and minimize time to value, and when it is done right it will unlock unprecedented speed, scale and shared success. But getting from one-off AI implementations - where most companies are at today - to autonomy will be neither easy nor obvious. Business leaders will need to challenge all the conventions, standard operating procedures and orthodoxies underpinning businesses designed by humans for humans – which is to say just about all of them! They will need to build digital labor to non-linearly scale the health, conditioning and talent of their teams, business and ecosystem, enabling 24x7x365 continuity and responsiveness, removing blockages and waste that trap or reduce value. They will need to manage the relationships between the two types of intelligent resources, digital and human. They will need to design for AI control and teach human leaders to "let go of the steering wheel".

The goal of Autonomous is to further expand the Boundless design principles that have guided the fastest growing companies in the world, and to ready business leaders, strategists and designers for success in the AI economy.
