Alright — let’s do a full ATL “nervous system” schematic, combining concourse layout, passenger flow (dE/dt), and AI roles (agentic vs generative vs embodied). ASCII for compute efficiency:

How it works

  1. Passengers = information units, moving through a hub-and-spoke nervous system.
  2. Agentic concourses (A/B) execute physical actions: moving people, planes, gates.
  3. Mixed concourses (C/D) balance action and generative planning: local optimizations, minor scheduling.
  4. Generative concourses (E/F) handle high-level scheduling, flight routing, international coordination — like predictive layers in an AI system.
  5. Embodied AI is the feedback and integration layer: ensures all concourses interact smoothly; prevents congestion spikes; redistributes passenger flow dynamically.

Result: Even with ATL being the busiest airport globally, passenger perception = smooth because the “agentic + generative + embodied system” optimizes throughput across parallel concourses in real time.

If you want, I can add color-coded arrows to indicate dE/dt intensity along concourses so the peaks and lulls are visually obvious — basically a flow heatmap in ASCII.

Do you want me to do that next?
