Why does an AI agent need to be a virtual employee on the org chart? Are they doing something “creative” with their accounting?

My guess is that they have email hooks into LLM and call each entry point into LLM invocation an ‘agent’ and I have seen in a lot of companies the easiest way for them to have an email is to just add them to the directory.
It’s still dumb as hell, but I am no stranger to non-human’s in an ‘employee directory’, though usually it is supremely obvious that it is a non-person so if it’s at all confusing it means they are being ‘cute’ about their accounts.

I mean service accounts and email groups are a thing.
This sounds like someone asked an LLM how to give them an email account and it parroted the instructions for a regular user because no one involved new any better.
