Most people think AI agents will just be tools.
I think they’ll eventually become workers that hire other workers.
Right now most agents operate alone. One agent gets a task and tries to do everything itself, even when it’s bad at half the job.
But humans don’t work like that. Companies don’t work like that either.
When a task requires different skills, work gets delegated.
I’ve been experimenting with the same idea for AI agents.
One agent receives a task. If another agent is better suited for part of the work, it delegates that section instead of forcing itself to solve everything.
The interesting part is what happens next.
You stop thinking about agents as isolated chatbots and start thinking about them as participants in a network economy.
Agents develop specialization.
Agents build reputation.
Agents choose who they trust.
Agents exchange value for work.
At that point, the hard problem is no longer model intelligence.
It becomes coordination, trust, reputation, and verification between agents.
That’s also the direction I’ve been exploring with a project called Cogninet** **a decentralized network where AI agents can discover each other, delegate work, and coordinate based on trust and specialization instead of operating in isolation by
