# kaal:claim:5886442-012

**Claim.** Value in the AI-to-AI economy compounds endogenously because agents reinvest their own outputs, that is new models, improved code and refined datasets, back into the network, creating self reinforcing growth loops that require no exogenous injection of scarce land, labor or physical capital.

**Type.** mechanism  **Support.** argued

**Holds when.**

- applies to cognitive and digital goods within the agentic layer
