Title: Intelligence as Managed Autonomy: Failure, Escalation, and Governance for Agentic AI Systems

Abstract:
arXiv:2605.27628v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: As autonomous and agentic AI systems scale in robotic and human-machine environments, managing hallucination and persistent but unjustified action remains an open challenge. Rather than attributing these failures solely to model or alignment limitations, this paper explores the architectural vulnerability of unbounded autonomy - the presumption that an agent should continue operating regardless of rising uncertainty. It introduces a theory of manag
