The article reviews the emergence of Agentic AI, covering its evolution, theoretical foundations, working principles, and architectural aspects. It surveys recent scholarly contributions across various domains, highlighting real‑world applications, current research findings, and existing challenges. The review also proposes a framework for stakeholder adoption and outlines future research directions to guide researchers and practitioners.
The article titled "Is Agentic AI Just Automation?" argues that many so‑called agents are merely flowcharts in disguise. It explains why this misconception exists and suggests what kinds of systems should be built instead to achieve true agentic AI.

arXiv:2607. 06608v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: We present key challenges and future research directions in the security and privacy of agentic AI, based on a horizon-scanning exercise that brought together thirty leading international experts from academia, industry, and government to engage in focused discussions and collaborative exercises on the emerging risks associated with the growing agency of AI.
The article "How to Solve the Right Problem in the Age of Agentic AI" presents a practical framework aimed at reducing uncertainty before agents accelerate implementation. It offers guidance on identifying and addressing the most relevant problems in the context of increasingly autonomous AI systems.
