Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Agentic AI is being heralded as the next step in the development of AI systems. Agentics, complex ensembles of different machine learning, data processing, and generative AI models, can provide new autonomous and proactive decision-making capabilities to organizations, participate in complex workflows, and, when needed, seek guidance from and provide insights to human users in natural languages. Collectively, we wish to explore how and why to design agentic systems to be situated within specific social and organizational contexts, the value of social theory and perspectives to this work, and the potential of this move to address critical issues with AI. Given the focus on social and organization context as essential to agentic design, we see this work as directly related to the ACM COMPASS 2025 theme “computing in place”. We seek to bring together scholars from the diversity of disciplines within ACM to develop research agendas, projects, and joint teaching initiatives that support the development of social agentic design and analysis.

Fetched live from OpenAlex and de-inverted. Abstracts are not stored in this database: the inverted indexes are 8.6 GB of the frame’s 9.3 GB of text, and the host has 13 GB free.

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
