Institutional AI Design • Agent-to-Agent Era

Vladimir Dyachkov PhD

Who controls the systems that control us? Institutions—governments, corporations, AI systems, and agent-to-agent networks—shape modern life. But who designs them? Who benefits? And how can they be changed? This podcast unpacks the architecture of power: AI governance, institutional economics, behavioral science, game theory, organizational design, and the hidden rules driving collective behavior. Each episode brings actionable insight, supported by open tools and communities like the A2A registry

Computational Approach to Norms: Encoding Ethics in...

Institutional AI Design • Agent-to-Agent Era ·

2026/10/05

Ethics of Computational Norms is the missing layer in every AI governance conversation. When agents start negotiating, sanctioning, and cooperating without human oversight, they do not float in a moral vacuum—they operationalize norms as code. This episode of Institutional AI Design • Agent-to-Agent Era confronts the computational approach to norms directly: how do we encode fairness, reciprocity, and accountability into protocols that execute at machine speed? We answer the question “Who decides

A2A business communication is the silent revolution that will wipe out your current sales and marketing playbook. In this episode of Institutional AI Design • Agent-to-Agent Era, we answer the uncomfortable question: How will B2B communication change when AI agents negotiate with AI agents? The answer is not “add a chatbot.” It is a shift from human-to-human persuasion to machine-readable business—where your value proposition must be structured, verifiable, and instantly actionable by a non-human

The Psychology of Trusting Autonomous Agents is the unseen bottleneck in the Agent-to-Agent economy. You can build perfect A2A protocol trust, but if humans refuse to delegate, the system stalls. This episode of Institutional AI Design • Agent-to-Agent Era examines the deep psychology of AI trust—why algorithmic aversion makes managers reject a 95%-accurate agent while accepting a 70%-accurate human, and how that bias blocks adoption of autonomous collaboration. We answer: Why do humans inherently

The Dawn of the A2A Economy: A2A Protocol Explained is your essential primer on the shift that is quietly rewriting the rules of work, value, and collaboration. If you've heard the term Agent-to-Agent standard but don't yet know what it means for you, this episode delivers a clear, no-hype breakdown. We answer the question “What exactly is the A2A protocol?” and explain why major tech companies are suddenly racing to define it. More importantly, we show you that the AI agent economy is not a distant

Will AI Agents Replace Your Job? The Brutal Truth cuts through the fear and hype of the A2A automation impact on the future of work AI. If you've been asking “Will AI replace my job?” this episode gives you the direct answer: AI won’t take your job—a human using AI and A2A protocols will. We break down exactly which job roles are most vulnerable to agent-to-agent delegation, which careers are truly AI-proof in the coming decade, and how A2A protocols accelerate task delegation away from humans—not

Episode 9 of Institutional Design for the AI Age confronts the moral dimension that our measurement framework makes unavoidable. Once you accept that institutions are statistically stable clusters of behavioral reactions carved from trace data, every signal you send becomes an act of institutional engineering. This deep dive into the ethics of institutional design for the AI age grapples with the responsibility that comes with the operational vocabulary we've built—density, entropy, propagation

Episode 8 of Institutional Design for the AI Age takes you on a deep anthropological journey—from the cognitive limits of early hominid bands to the agent-to-agent economy—to reveal why the informational field evolution is the master key for designing stable institutions today. This episode makes institutional design for the AI age impossible to ignore by excavating the prehistoric origins of perception filters, signal fidelity, and the first gatekeepers who controlled the normative meta-signal.

Episode 7 of Institutional Design for the AI Age builds the long-awaited bridge between the giants of institutional economics and the empirical framework that finally proves their insights were correct. Douglass North, Geoffrey Hodgson, Ronald Coase, Oliver Williamson, and Elinor Ostrom each described deep truths about how rules, habits, and governance structures shape economic life. Their observations were brilliant—but they lacked instruments to directly measure the behavioral realities they

Episode 7 of Institutional Design for the AI Age presents the controlled laboratory experiment that turns theoretical definitions into physical, measurable proof. We begin with the paradox that has paralyzed institutional theory: Douglass North and W. Richard Scott defined institutions in terms of latent, unobservable constructs—rules, norms, shared mental models—while digital platforms now generate oceans of behavioral telemetry that make those definitions irrelevant. This episode bridges that gap

Episode 6 of Institutional Design for the AI Age finally gives you a complete measurement toolkit for the information environment where institutions are born, compete, and die. In this deep dive, we map the four field-level parameters that govern how signals travel across digital platforms—density, propagation speed, access asymmetry, and entropy—and show why mastering them is the prerequisite for any serious institutional design for the AI age. Drawing on Shannon's information theory and real-world

Episode 3 of Institutional Design for the AI Age delivers the operational toolkit that turns invisible norms into measurable patterns. After diagnosing the measurement crisis, we hand you the solution: seven analytical primitives that bridge institutional theory and the behavioral trace data flooding every platform. This deep dive makes institutional design for the AI age an engineering discipline by replacing vague "rules" with observable, timestamped signal-reaction chains—from Pavlov's dogs to

Welcome to Episode 2 of Institutional Design for the AI Age, where we confront the measurement crisis that breaks classical institutional theory and build a new operational framework from behavioral data. This episode delivers a complete deep dive into why the foundational definitions of Douglass North and W. Richard Scott cannot be observed in the digital trace data modern platforms generate—and how redefining institutions as statistically stable behavioral clusters finally transforms institutional

Welcome to the first episode of Institutional Design for the AI Age, the podcast that transforms institutions from invisible forces into measurable building blocks of behavior. In this deep-dive, we confront the defining paradox of institutional theory: the discipline that set out to explain stable collective behavior cannot measure its own central object. After three decades, scholars still rely on unobservable concepts—rules, norms, constraints—that resist every attempt at operationalization. This

This episode moves from institutions themselves to the environments that make them possible. The paper argues that the informational environment is not a neutral backdrop; it shapes how signals propagate and how behavioural patterns stabilize.We examine institutions as products of signal fields, behavioural infrastructure, norms, and communication environments.Read the article: ResearchGate articleBook: Habit Machine: AI Product ManagementAI A2A HUB: itinai.com

This episode opens the series by asking why classical institutional theory struggles in the age of digital trace data. The paper argues that modern platforms generate observable behavioural signals at a scale that older definitions of institutions cannot operationalize.We discuss why institutions should be studied as measurable behavioural patterns rather than only as rules, norms, or constraints.Read the article: ResearchGate articleBook: Habit Machine: AI Product ManagementAI A2A HUB:
