The author highlights the emerging problem of "agent sprawl." As companies scale to 50-100 agents across departments, tracking ownership, versions, permissions, and decision logs becomes unmanageable. This is riskier than cloud resource sprawl because agents can make autonomous decisions. The post calls for necessary inventory, audit trails, and governance frameworks for entire agent fleets.
