چکیده
This wide-ranging survey considers the future of machines in terms of information, complexity and the growth of knowledge shared amongst agents.

The future development of machines is examined in terms of unions of human and machine agency evolving as part of economic activity. Limits to, and threats posed by, the continuing evolution of such a society of agency are considered.
