The title is great for getting people in, but is not in telling what you're doing afterwards :)
This situation is not new though; every company gets more coordination headwind as they grow: in hierarchical ones it's bottlenecked managers (who need to decide everything), in decentralized orgs it's meetings and committees. (this is a good presentation that explains and concludes pretty much what you say: give direction https://komoroske.com/slime-mold/)
AI speeds up execution, but does not help with coordination (ie. OpenAI is still chaotic, just look at their product direction and model naming mess). AI helps you to have the same output (in the digital world / shipping 'features') with fewer people: you can return to a smaller org.
As the company grows, sooner or later you won't have time to explain your vision to everyone, you'll need people to do that.
