White Paper
Agentic AI in Government: Balancing Autonomy and Accountability
The whitepaper explores how agentic AI is reshaping government operations by enabling autonomous systems to act, decide, and learn independently. While it enhances speed and efficiency, it also introduces oversight and accountability challenges. Experts emphasize the dual role of agentic AI in both cyber defense and attack, requiring new governance models and human supervision. The U.S. Marine Corps is building frameworks centered on transparency and control. Agencies are urged to start small with low-risk tasks, refine oversight, and scale responsibly. The goal is not to replace human judgment but to integrate AI as a trusted partner that improves security, agility, and public trust.
