would be interesting to see some AI-assisted version of holacracy replace middle managers -- you'd still have low-level team leads and high-level strategy people, but a lot of the informational glue and project updates could be taken over by machines you'd need to go into a project like that (1) believing that middle managers eventually suppress more value than they add and (2) you're okay operating in a random mix of cowboy team leads and inconsistent organizational glue between them. you'd set broad parameters like 'don't over-duplicate work', 'pick projects that are more or less on-topic with our company', 'get third party verification of plans and estimates'. Firing could be some mix of 'future needs', performance and random. Moving teams would happen based on an internal market of skills & personnel budget. might be chaos but it could be fun.
