The age of scale is over. The future of AI belongs to orchestration.
As the arms race for bigger models hits the limits of physics, data, and capital, a deeper question How do we make intelligence actually work in the real world? In this provocative and sharply reasoned book, Maurizio Grassi reveals why the most advanced AI companies are abandoning monolithic models in favor of multi-agent systems—and why 73% of them are still failing. Drawing on decades of experience in innovation, risk management, and machine learning, Grassi exposes the architectural flaws, governance blind spots, and investor delusions that prevent AI from delivering on its promises.
Whether you’re a founder seeking scalable systems, a corporate leader struggling to operationalize AI, or an investor rethinking your thesis post-parameter-count, this book offers a clear framework for navigating what comes next. From the collapse of scaling orthodoxy to the emergence of protocol economies and agentic ecosystems, The Rise of AI Agentic Orchestration reframes AI not as a tool to be used—but as a system to be understood, aligned, and evolved.
This is not a celebration of hype. It’s a field manual for those building the real future of intelligence—where collaboration beats scale, orchestration beats automation, and strategy finally beats spectacle.
