The article explores neuro-symbolic agentic AI (NSAAI) as a framework for enhancing the reliability and adaptability of networked low‑altitude UAVs. It outlines NSAAI’s strengths in data efficiency, compositional generalization, continual learning, and zero‑shot transfer, and presents a reference architecture that integrates task management, neuro‑symbolic planning, verification, metacognition, skill execution, and network interaction. A case study of an urban fire‑inspection mission demonstrates how a UAV can coordinate sensing, cloud access, and verified image‑delivery skills under intermittent connectivity, illustrating NSAAI’s potential for reusable skills, evidence‑grounded decision‑making, and adaptive mission execution.
arXiv:2606. 14219v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Agentic AI can support unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) autonomy by providing high-level recovery reasoning when local waypoint- or setpoint-based execution encounters blocked passages, repeated no-progress behavior, or mission-level ambiguity.

AeroWeaver is a new embodied‑agent harness that integrates large language model (LLM) decision making with the executable skills of individual UAVs, enabling distributed, adaptive swarm execution. It connects semantic mission decisions to governed skills, organizes role‑conditioned local agents for coordination, and refines skill selection online using role‑indexed state‑action‑reward experience. Experiments demonstrate that AeroWeaver maintains valid skill execution without a central joint‑action generator and supports reward‑guided, training‑free adaptive learning from accumulated execution experience.

arXiv:2608. 05792v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Agentic artificial intelligence (AI) is transforming Integrated Sensing and Communication (ISAC) from a function-oriented physical-layer technology into a goal-driven, closed-loop intelligent system, a paradigm we term AISAC.
