Agentic Intelligence Under Constraint: Energy, Context, And The Expansion Of Exchange, Nick Loghmani Jan 2026

Agentic Intelligence Under Constraint: Energy, Context, And The Expansion Of Exchange, Nick Loghmani

iSchool - All Scholarship

Recent advances in agentic artificial intelligence have been driven primarily by scale: larger models, increased data, and expanding computational resources. However, rising energy costs, inference latency, and hardware constraints increasingly challenge this trajectory. This paper argues that intelligence—biological or artificial—does not primarily scale through raw computational expansion, but through the management of exchange under constraint. Drawing on cognitive science, systems theory, and prior work on exchange-based models of intelligence, the paper proposes a theoretical framework in which agentic intelligence scales through context management, proceduralization, and the assembly of reusable units of exchange. Unlike approaches that focus solely on model compression …
