Early identification of cognitive concerns is critical but often hindered by subtle symptom presentation. This study developed and validated a fully automated, multi-agent AI workflow using LLaMA 3 8B to identify cognitive concerns in 3,338…

Task-based models of AI and labor hold organizational structure fixed. We introduce agent capital: AI that reduces coordination costs, expanding spans of control and enabling endogenous task creation. Five propositions characterize how…
