Abstract: 
This article discusses the changes occurring in the background of hyper-automation concerning Agentic AI. The growth of self-governing and decision-making AI systems is addressed in the discussion of AI as an embodiment of agency, which empowers industries to operate with the least human interference or assistance. The analysis of Agentic AI in hyper-automated ecosystems corresponds to the following objectives: the role and application of AI, the main issues that appear when implementing the solution, and the ethical aspects. Case examples from logistics, manufacturing, and energy employ both quantitative and qualitative analysis to demonstrate the benefits of the technologies in increasing productivity, decreasing operational expenses, and improving decision-making. Indeed, concerns have emerged about benefits such as shorter delivery time and enhanced sustainable development, yet drawbacks include algorithmic openness and loss of employment. Based on the analysis of balanced deployment, the article provides a call for ethical principles and policies addressing the issues of growth and social acceptance.
