Summary
According to a post on X by @lsrspeakstocomp, a theory paper called "Organizing Intelligence" by Alex Imas, Andrew Koh, and Shane Legg models how AI agents with multidimensional capabilities sort into firms. The paper separates competence, which shifts productivity levels, from coordination, which determines how productivity scales with firm size. The authors argue that reproducible AI expertise combined with better-than-human coordination could break Coasean firm-size ceilings and trigger a shift toward large AI-heavy firms. This is a theoretical argument, and the excerpt provided is incomplete.

Why it matters
For business leaders and investors, the paper suggests firm size could depend on how well AI systems coordinate work, not only on how capable they are. Organizations planning AI adoption may need to consider coordination as well as raw skill. Because this is a theory paper and the excerpt is partial, the next step is to read the full text and test whether its assumptions hold.
