What does it look like when one of the world’s largest professional services firms builds an AI agent whose only job is to teach 400,000 employees to build their own AI agents? Welcome to Episode 10 of The Business AI Playbook, the podcast where I sit down with leaders who are rethinking how organisations develop and enable their people. Each episode goes deep on the real decisions, trade-offs, and results behind AI adoption in the enterprise. If you want to see what production-ready AI training video looks like in practice, Listen to the full episode on Spotify, YouTube, or Apple Podcasts. EY built an agent whose job is to teach its workforce to build agents Simon Brown is the global Learning and Development leader at EY. His team is responsible for AI skills across 400,000 employees in 150 countries. Two and a half years into the role, he’s overseen one of the largest corporate AI learning rollouts publicly described to date, and the latest iteration is, in his own words, a world first. EY just launched an AI agent. The agent’s only job is to teach an EY employee how to build their own AI agent. A short tutorial introduces the user, and then the agent takes over. It asks what would be a good use case for them personally, walks them through the build step by step, and by the end of the session the user has shipped a functional agent they can keep using. About 20,000 people have gone through it in the first few weeks. It’s rolling out to all 400,000. What I found most striking was how Simon framed the journey. This wasn’t a single project. It was the third stage of a three-stage evolution that mirrors how the technology itself has matured. Stage one was “AI Now,” a voluntary module to introduce people to what AI even is. 350,000 people took it. That’s 90% of the organisation, the most popular training EY has ever run. Stage two was “Gen AI as Thought Partner,” which had over 500,000 completions across two modules. Stage three is the agent-building agent. Each one was built when the technology was ready and the workforce was ready, not before. “This is rolling out to 400,000 people. An agent to teach people how to build agents. By the end of the training, you’ve actually hands-on built your own agent.”
