About this ebook

The rise of AI agents is transforming how companies create value and compete.

Companies have long operated on an assumption of scarcity: Talent is limited, expertise is expensive, and good judgment is difficult to scale. But these constraints are disappearing.

Digital labor can interpret goals, apply reason, coordinate tasks, make decisions, and act with autonomy. As the cost of human knowledge and expertise falls, a new economic reality is taking shape: Intelligence is abundant.

Deloitte's Nitin Mittal and futurist Mike Walsh reveal what happens when judgment is no longer the scarce resource it once was. Drawing on inside access to leaders driving AI transformations at some of the world's most powerful companies—NVIDIA, BMW, Moderna, Sanofi, and others—they show how abundant intelligence is reshaping work, decision-making, operating models, and competitive advantage and what leaders must do to capitalize on the shift. Central to the book is the Intelligence Signature, a new framework that shows leaders how to combine human and machine intelligence to create a distinctive advantage.

We are at the beginning of a revolution in human-machine intelligence. Powerful AI tools and digital labor are rewriting the rules of business. The companies that master this technology will operate with growing confidence, creativity, and capacity, leaving a widening gap between themselves and everyone else.
