Human managers satisfice because further search is cognitively costly, whereas AI agents continue searching until the global optimum is reached because additional computation is essentially free, which removes bounded rationality from the economic substrate.

Where human managers satisfice because further search is cognitively costly, AI2AI agents continue searching until the global optimum is reached because additional computation is essentially free.
