What he is known for
Dr. Tebaa originated the e-mployee framework — the idea that individuals increasingly direct AI agents like a personal workforce, delegating objectives, supervising output, and remaining personally accountable for the result. The accompanying E-mployee Doctrine names five capacities that separate someone who merely uses AI tools from one who genuinely directs an artificial workforce: delegation, direction, discernment, accountability, and orchestration.
