i just think its an extremely naive idea to move purchasing decisions to agents.
Why though? If you own a company, you delegate purchasing to human employees, too. And sometimes they buy crap and make poor decisions. It comes with the risk, and you mitigate by budgeting. You will have to asses your employees for competence, same as you do with agents. You don't give a new and unknown employee a big budget, while your trusted ones slowly get more and more control.
a human can screw up in a non scalable manner an agent can do it at scale and worse it would attract bad actors who will certainly exploit that

This is what everybody gets wrong: Agents aren't bad or evil. Nor crazy. They don't steal. They pretty much work (after some setup and periods of supervision) as expected. And yes, sometimes they might be wrong and spend more. Same as the human. From a business standpoint it is just risk/reward structure.
