This seems odd. I think broadly there are two ways of structuring how you interact with AI agents:

* The first is where there's you and your computer, and you're doing pre-AI work. You hit some hotkey and pass off some task to AI.

* The second - and where I think we should probably be going, is there's you and you interact with the an agent. You aren't handing the Q4 report off to the agent, the agent is bringing the Q4 report to you.

I think the first scenario is trying to pry agentic work into legacy workflows. It will be more powerful when we simply go straight to the second, where orchestration and interaction with your agents is the interface.
