智能代理系统正越来越多地作为组织工作流中的生产性资源部署,但现有评估方法主要关注孤立的技术性能,而非经济贡献。本文提出「Agentomics」——一种基于工作流的框架,用于估值、归因和定价人类与人工智能代理。该框架将工作流建模为异质代理的配置,其集体表现决定总价值、部署成本、可靠性及预期失效损失。工作流价值被视为团队级量度,包含互补性、替代效应、瓶颈和非线性生产;阶段附加值仅为特例。基于此模型,将AI部署建模为联盟形成问题,联盟价值定义为相对于基准人类工作流的增量净收益。采用谢林值分配经济盈余,建立估值、责任与市场定价之间的原则性联系。所得谢林定价均衡提供了一个规范性基准,用于评估代理价格是否反映预期边际贡献。一个安全运营案例研究展示了该框架如何在混合人-机工作流中考虑生产力提升、部署成本、可靠性损失及联盟级互补性。

原文摘要 · Abstract (English)

Agentic AI systems are increasingly being deployed as productive resources in organizational workflows, yet existing evaluation methods primarily measure isolated technical performance rather than economic contribution. This paper introduces \emph{Agentomics}, a workflow-based framework for valuing, attributing, and pricing human and artificial agents. The framework models a workflow as a configuration of heterogeneous agents whose collective performance determines gross value, deployment cost, reliability, and expected failure loss. Workflow value is treated as a team-level quantity that may include complementarities, substitution effects, bottlenecks, and nonlinear production; additive stage-level value is only a special case. Building on this workflow model, the paper formulates AI deployment as a coalition-formation problem and defines coalition value as the incremental net surplus generated relative to a benchmark human workflow. The Shapley value is then used to attribute economic surplus among participating AI agents, yielding a principled connection among valuation, accountability, and market pricing. The resulting Shapley pricing equilibrium provides a normative benchmark for assessing whether agent prices reflect expected marginal contribution. A security-operations case study illustrates how the framework accounts for productivity gains, deployment costs, reliability losses, and coalition-level complementarities in hybrid human--AI workflows.
