In my country, companies are required by law to provide their employees a way to clock-in and clock-out at work. Companies are also required to keep a copy of these records that can be audited any time. This was seen as a great improvement for a country famous for its long workdays and systemic unpaid overtime.
The response of many company owners has been to forge their employees records. No way to clock-in and clock-out is provided, instead employers craft all this information and keep it to themselves. Everything is exactly as it used to be.
I'm one of those people who think AI could replace many management jobs, since my manager struggles at things a computer does easily, such as calculating annual leave. Many days all my interactions with him could be improved by a well-crafted bot. The main issue is that many companies are actively fighting AI and management automation, since it would expose the schemes that keep their business running.

Managers usually want to do things "their way" but I think the mechanics of Sprints are well enough understood to just go by the process and enjoy it. On the other hand I think it's good to have a manager to talk to, also someone that deals with conflicts at work and someone who is able to reverse toxic dynamics. No way this can be automated in foreseeable future and neither do I see that "self-organized teams" find any way to solve this. Also dealing with product requirements is hard to automate.
