Oddly optimistic article despite the title, but lol no. middle-management is like analogous for bureaucratic bloat and politicking. It’s been a punch line for decades that middle managers suck and don’t actually do much. This like saying AI will finally eliminate paperwork, dmv lines, or pointless meetings. The Inefficiencies are built in and Hierarchical structures of a traditional company Necessitate someone between the peons on the executives. AI isn’t going to somehow alter that.
Besides I want someone to be between me and my boss. An intermediary between me and the guy who can fire me at any moment.
