The clearest way to think of AI and automation is in terms of a person, or multiple people, but it can also take the form of partial people. AI is already helping middle and upper management make better decisions.

Instead of removing the need for any of them it has instead increased their productivity. That is a partial driver for the increasing wage gap between occupations, and makes complete sense from an automation as personal productivity improvements.
