Framing this as a governance story rather than a product launch is the right call. A proactive agent that can start work on its own is useful, but in a business the first question isn't what it can do — it's who is accountable when it does the wrong thing, and whether there's a record to check afterward.
Shadow IT is the part I'd watch. If the approved path is slow or locked down, people will just use the tool anyway, only now without any oversight. The companies that get this right will probably be the ones that make the governed path the easy path.
