Artificial intelligence is frequently discussed for its potential to replace creative roles.
Eric Glyman draws attention to a less-discussed but significant trend: the rapid automation of back office functions such as procurement, accounts payable, and contract renewals. Glyman notes that these tasks are increasingly being handled by AI agents operating at all hours, at minimal cost. He suggests that the operational efficiencies and cost reductions in these business processes may have a broader transformative effect than the changes occurring in the U.S. creative sector.
Glyman has previously raised concerns about the reliability of AI agents in critical business operations. Earlier research at Ramplabs found that coding AI agents can overlook safety in token management, according to a Ramplabs study. The findings highlighted risks for technology firms adopting automated back office tools.
