English abstract:
Self-driving cars, smart ambient home systems, industrial and service robots are all examples of cognitive computing systems that are designed to recieve, analyze data and carry out actions
without human intervention [1]. Designing these systems goes beyond the technical domain of simply being intelligent and connected, as their repercussions of the social, organizational and user issues become extremely difficult to ignore [2]. While technological advances have made it possible for the passive objects to become agentic, disagreements persist about the notion of machine agency. This conceptual paper provides an initial typology of artificial agents and reflects the sociocultural consequences encountered in interacting with artificial agents.

Keywords:
Machine agency, artificial agents, socio-technical systems, typology
