Tra <assettizzazione del codice> e <agentificazione dell’economia>, prosegue il nostro percorso filosofico sorprendente e arrischiato dentro l’economia della macchina. La <machine economy> è sicuramente uno dei modelli e delle strategie emergenti tra code economy e agent economy in grado di trasformare le tradizionali logiche di mercato e le classiche forme dell’impresa. Leggere questi sorprendenti passaggi tecnologici nella loro dimensione istitutiva e istituente (cioè come nuove istituzioni umane e non solo come un passaggio tecnologico) è un compito strategico e prefigurativo vitale per le organizzazioni e le imprese che intendono prosperare dentro i orizzonti delle <Turing Institutions> tra agents e wallets. Dagli algoritmi agli agenti, una nuova economia (politica) della macchina è in emergenza e tutta da studiare … (postilla a Accoto, Il Pianeta Latente, 2024)
Leggendo “AI Agents in Action” (Lanham, 2025) e anche dell’agent-based economy (“Routledge International Handbook of Complexity Economics”, Edited by Ping Chen, Wolfram Elsner and Andreas Pyka, 2025)
<< … Of course, the world that computation reveals is not one of rational perfection, and it is not mechanistic. It appears to be more biological than anything else. Its agents are constantly acting and reacting within an “ecology” of behaviors brought about by other agents acting and reacting. Algorithmic expression allows novel, unthought‐of behaviors, novel formations, and structural change from within—it allows creation. It gives us a world that is constantly creating and re‐creating itself. The proper use of computation, I believe, is to explore this realm that lies beyond our current limitations … Economics will change if for no other reason than that all the other sciences are changing. They are wondering how structures are generated. They are getting away from static objects to ideas of process. They are embracing uncertainty, ill‐definedness, and unpredictability, and dropping their Newtonian insistence on a predictable, ordered world. Economics is opening slowly to this change in Zeitgeist and beginning to accept nonequilibrium, ill‐defined problems, and processes. More than anything else, computation is catalyzing this change and making it possible. Inevitably economics will open to these changes in the thinking of our times” >> (W. Brian Arthur in Chen, Elsner & Pika, p. 128)
